1. They are really strong and *I haven't broke one yet*
No offense, but if you highest hop is 26 cm...it doesn't sound like
your abilities would let you break one yet, but yes the are very
strong, and I haven't heard if ANYONE breaking them.
Cranks are like everything unicycle, PERSONAL PREFERENCE.
-strength and weight are inevitable, everyone wants light yet strong
cranks.
-q-factor (the amount the cranks goes out or parallel from the
hub/wheel) is a lot of preference, a lot of guys like tons of q, a lot
like none. more q= more hopping stability, but more speed wobble.
-also the nubs near the axle can hit your ankles, which is a negative
for some cranks, as other cranks may not have nubs.
-ISIS (International Spline Interface Standard) is a positive with most
new cranks because in most cases in makes for strong axles, and very
high crank/hub compatibility. Be aware though, as you will read on most
retail websites, Koxx 1 ISIS is not true ISIS therefore doesn't work
with other ISIS components.
-different style rider often look for different things in cranks(for
example a flat rider wouldn't want rounded top cranks *from what I've
read, I don't ride flat*)
-desired length varies w/ riding style/riders desires
I hope this helps. I too have 137 Moments and for trials(my main focus)
couldn't say enough for them. They are not 125 speed machines, but I can
get plenty fast for what I am doing, and more. they are very versatile
for street, and flat(the bit i do)
