KH 20' or KH Double Crown

Jagster · 2010-06-06, 02:07 AM

I am thinking of buying a new unicycle

and am looking at the KH 20' and KH Double Crown. I found that the DC is less expensive than the standard 20'. Is there a reason for this?

And does the 20' have any disadvantages compared to the Double Crown (besides extra rear fork)?
I ride mostly street and flatland with a little trials.
Thanks

If you have any other uni brands and suggestions that would be helpful too.

Well the regular KH 20 is more versatile. It is worse for someone who is a beginner at flat imo. It is your choice but it is a bit heavier and not so good for trials either.

I would look into Impact unicycles; they have some nice stuff that weighs about the same and is a bit cheaper than KH. Except to pedals and maybe the cranks.

Maybe you want to get a custom uni.

The groovy cranks from impact might suite you better for flatland and street. They can also be used for a bit of trial. The new 2010 KH seatpost imo is better. I have not tried the impact but KH is strong and pretty cheap. The naomi saddles from Impact are really nice!

I would mix and match a little bit if I were you but, as I said before it is your choice!

I think the double crown is cheaper, as mybe they want to sell it off, as the double crown isn't popular I think.

Thanks. Both of you guys have been really helpful.

Have you decided yet, what you're going to get?

Jagster · 2010-06-10, 09:59 PM

Well I contacted unicycle.com.au (i think thats right) and they said they were taking the DC off the website because it was a slow seller! So I guess it will be the standard KH 20 BUT I am actually leaning towards the Impact Raegant unicycle.
I was just wondering, do you have to buy all the impact parts separately because I can't find where they have entire constructed unicycles on their website.

aidanteleki · 2010-06-10, 10:23 PM

well wherever your buying from, you should contact them and ask. I'm not sure where your buying from so I can't tell you.

Check out http://unicycle.com.au/ for Impact parts, a wheel set is there.

Cool. Thanks.

aidanteleki · 2010-06-13, 11:27 PM

They have all the Impact parts there.

Jagster · 2010-06-13, 11:48 PM

I worked out the IMPACT is AU$758.45 and a KH20' is AU$726 so there isn't much difference in price. The question is now-
KH 20' or IMPACT Raegant?

aidanteleki · 2010-06-14, 01:46 AM

That's all up to you; as I think posted before, I think you should mix it up a little bit. =D
