um, why not?

I was wondering, will 5mm. shorter cranks make a noticable difference in speed and crankflip/other street capabilities.

10 mm makes a ton of differnce and apparently there better for uni spins cause theres like no q-factor so and i donno i think i would just want to see how much different they are... like if they are "better" for street like yoggi say's and then i can give people reviews as well so...

how does anyone know what 10 mm diff makes, no ones ridden them (w/ exeptions)you prolly wont even feel the difference, and contrary to what u may believe a centmeter wont make unispins or crankflips any easier

and q-factor also doesnt make unispins or c flips any easier

soooo you're saying that nobody knows if 10mm makes a difference or not (with exception).

i'd imagine that you would be included in that group of nobody, which would suggest you don't know what difference they make, and then you go on to say that it wont make unispins or crankflips easier.

so either you don't know that they're going to make a difference and you dont know if it makes it easier or not, or you do, which is it?

i'd imagine that it would be better, i mean they wouldnt go off and make cranks slightly smaller for the heck of it, would they?

firstly......OMG kris you have yoggis msn and secondly to answer the street or trials question, why not just buy a strong trials uni and ride it street. i would rather a slight disadvantage and a strong almost unbreakable uni rather than a slight advantage and a weaker uni.

i dont think it would break a lot easier.

it's got virtually the same components as the trials, except the rim hasn't been drilled and the cranks are different.

it wouldnt break A LOT easier.
