    I just got this reply via email from the Torker importer:

    Do you think it is worth waiting for over an LX?
    ••••••••••••••••••••••
    These unicycles should arrive late February... most dealers can
    receive
    orders within 2 business days. The specs are very similar to the LX
    models, but with an alloy frame. Pricing? Well, we are a wholesale
    distributor only, so dealer prices may vary... but MSRP's are as
    follows:
    TORKER 29" AX UNISTAR ALLOY UNICYCLE $264.99
    BLACK
    TORKER 24" AX UNISTAR ALLOY UNICYCLE $209.99
    BLACK
    TORKER 20" AX UNISTAR ALLOY UNICYCLE $204.99
    BLACK

    Thank-you for your inquiry!

    I personally wouldn't wait for it. I would just get the lx unless you
    plan on getting a 29er. But even in that case I would just buy a
    nimbus.

    Shoot. I guess that puts that nice 29er out of my budget. Guess I'll
    have to keep saving up.

    If it has a flat crown, than I would say you should definatly wait if
    you hope/plan on doing any freestyle as if you have that, then I doubt
    you ever need anything else. Those sound like some pretty awesome unis.

    I think the 29er looks great and I would totally go for it if I didn't
    have the -go big or go home- attitude and insist on getting a coker.

    I wouldn't quite say that just yet, the MSRP for the DX is something
    like $399 yet at most places it sells for $250

    with the sloping crown, i think i'd only even think about the 29er, the
    20 would be nice and light but the round crown would be bad for most
    freestyle tricks.

    No, it was $350, I just looked it up again online, and I remember
    because I was working at a bike shop at the time of its release.
