Re: Square taperd

You're prob fine up to 2 ft, but even if you never jump down more than a
curb, eventually you will need to replace your cranks and hub.

Not all ISIS systems are strong. Koxx-One and Qu-Ax make both light
and strong versions. So don't assume just because it says it's ISIS
it's burly. Also Koxx isn't interchangable w/ anything else.

Probably. The 05 series KH use a 20 mm axle. These seemed really strong,
and used the cheapest bearing on earth, the legendary 3 billion sold
each year 20x42 x 12 mm wide .

For a uni ISIS standard to replace the 20 mm axle, they(all makers)
went to 22 mm. This is stronger, all other factors held constant, then
a smaller size can be.

In doing so, a new , screwy, 22x42 bearing size was needed. The non
legendary, uni only, a few thousand sold each year, 22x42x12 mm. That
is why you can buy a 20 x 42 bearing for 1 $, but must pay 8 $, for a
22 x42 , only found in a uni shop. This is a petty unimportant comment
on costs, but I'm like that.🙂

I think square hub unis can be a great deal. Cranks are 5 x cheaper,
and you can get an uber light ax torker for < 200 $

Rather then bust your square drive hub, I would suggest finding a good
deal on a KH 19, once you decide that you want to jump a lot. If you
break your square hub, I would fix it with another rim or square hub
cheap from UDC, and learn not to beat on that uni so hard.

The best way to get a trials uni is to find a good deal on a KH and buy
one. The cost of multiple shippings, parts, assembly etc. , makes
buying a cheaper uni, and fixing parts as they break, the sad way to
go. 🙁

At your weight, it's kinda your call. I'm sorta fat so I don't hop on
my square drive unis. You might get away with it.
