The next Torker DX?(It's a Qu-Ax)

Unicycles and Equipment
1

I was lookin on unicycle.com and it has the Qu-Ax cross uni and it says it has an ISIS splined hub for only $207! We could have a cheaper splined uni than the DX! Any reviews from anyone? How is it strength wise compared to the DX?

i don’t think it’s actually SPLINED…
i’m not completely sure though.

It is definately splined, apparently they still not very strong. I read on one of those sites it is weaker than the normal quax hub and cranks and if you are going to do big stuff get the yellow hub.

5

hmm…
didn’t notice that.

kewl.

6

hehe
the cranks in that picture are croookED
maybe they’re just put on wrong…

7

Woah, I think you are right!
That’s funny!

8

I think thats just the Q-factor.

get a kh. the fusion saddle is uncomfortable fo me but i have a bony a**. just last night i added foam i found whilst assembling flatpacks on new years eve. still yet to try it. man this got off topic.

10

I already have a KH. I just thought that it was strange that an ISIS splined uni would be that cheap(207$). But from the looks of what Spencer said, the uni won’t hold up to much abuse.

11

i think they are 1 spline off or something

12

O. I cant really tell because I can’t see the other crank that well. Unicycle.com seems to have problems with assembly pics of their unis. The crank on the Nimbus w/ Profiles looks bent, also lol.

13

From municycle.com: The hub stability are between a standard hub and a Suzue hub. This cross are not for high jumps ! If you want do high jumps you better choose the Qu-ax Muni with splined hub !

From udc uk: It is not suitable for serious jumping as only has lightweight ISIS hub and cranks, for extreme jumping look at our unicycles with splined hubs.

I think it may hold up to more than you guys think…Check out the pics of Muzzle and his buddy riding it on the bottom of this page.

Actually I have that same unicycle…they are not the same cranks in that picture. Ive done a 4 and a half foot drop and I didnt here a peep. My friend has a 2007 KH20 and mine feels just as solid…I rode a Torker DX it feels just as solid as that too. And yes it is ISIS splined because i can see in the cranks that its a 10 spline ISIS.

16

I weigh 73kg, and have bent the hub ever so slightly after a repeated 3-4ft drops (note: this is ABOVE the recommended limit). It has a slight wobble to it when I ride which is irritating, but not limiting. I switched and rotated my cranks with mate’s cross (hoping that the crank was the problem) to no avail.

If you plan on doing any “big” trials/street, save your money. I would recommend it to beginners who want to experiment with different styles of riding before purchasing a dedicated machine.

See my review of the cross here…

17

that sucks, ive done 3-4 foot drops on my unsplined nimbus and its fine

18

you have the cross fire…it has a different hub it think.

19

I have the crossfire, but the hub is the same (red qu-ax isis).

20

I pretty sure its just as strong as others. Well it looks that way from this Chart.

LOOK HERE

I find it to be a very sturdy hub.
