which trials uni..

General

Im looking for a new Trials Uni and there are a few that have caught my eye

The onza 20" trials cycle

Torker Unistar DX 20-inch Trials cycle

qu-ax trials cycle(except i no longer see this one on unicycle.com…hmm)

any help in choosing one would be appreciated, i have been leaning towards the Onza the most.

Also, some backround about the kind of riding i do might be useful to you. I ride alot of street stuff, rails, benches, stair sets, you know things like that.
Im looking for a uni that can handle some major abuse…so far every unicycle i have had hasnt been able to handle the beating. I just crushed a torker(cx i believe) jumping off a 7ft drop to flat.

anyways, any help is appreciated.

ONZA for sure, I have the 24" version and I love it

3

I love the Onza all except the frame. I cut my knees on it too much.

KH.

awesome, im thinking that im definatley getting the onza.
anybody know how much it weighs stock?

im glad that i decided to get on the internet and ask for some help. The guys at my local bike shop are way cool but know basically nothing about unicycling. I didnt even know other people did street riding untill i looked on the internet, i feel like i found a lost civilazation or something. I mean, i have been riding street features this whole time and untill this week i had no idea anybody else was doing it.

thanks for the help.

save up like 70 more bucks and get a kh

you also need to think about crank size

6

i have heard that the kh and onza are pretty identical.
are there any big differences?
also, what crank size do you recommend?

7

The only diffrences are: the onza frame is heavier then the KH frame (but not by too much), the onza comes with an alex DX32 rim, which is slightly less wide and i think a tiny tiny bit heavier then the KH rim. Addtionally i think they both come with the same. But the KH does come with snafu’s well it seems that the onza only comes with no name bmx pedals. So the KH comes with better pedals. in any case they are both great uni’s and fun to ride!
thanks

yeah, same here.

Is the torker frame good? how heavy is it?

9

the KH frame is awesome
it’s low-profile and close to the tire so gliding etc is easier, you also won’t hit your knees on it

also, the KH comes w/ an awesome thin seat taht rocks for seat out, and it’s lighter

save and get it

10

The kh also comes with a creepy cralwer tire… dont kno if the onza does tho…

11

the onza has a luna tire on it. which is aruguably by the way…just as good as the crawler.

12

hmm, for not that much money the KH sounds alot nicer than the onza.
i think that i might be able to talk the guys at my local bike shop to order one of each and then let me test ride them and buy it from them, they are usually pretty cool about that kind of stuff.
but from all the nice things being said about the KH i just might have to go for it. Also the fact that i really respect Kris Holmes and things…

well thanks for the help

time to go ride. good weather finally!

13

if you have the money get the kh you’ll be alot better off.

14

NO! lol… I have ridden both, and I like the lnua better because I ride street… but for trials I think the cc owns more… it’s bigger and has more bounce too…

15

just because i said aruguably doesnt mean i want to argue about it we could go back and forth all night but i dont wanna/

16

get a new koxx blue berry, or white widow! they are in the same price range

www.koxx-one.com

look at the unis, then go to the white widow or blue berry. They are beauties!

otherwise get the onza for sure

17

I have the KH 20’’.
And i love that unicycle!

18

get a good BEDFORD uni with kh/onza hub and cranks… it is the BEST dude… i promise

19

or a bedford with profiles…which is better!

as far as cranks go, 127 is what most people get for street, 140 for trials, but if you get it from a bike shop, then youll probably have to settle for one size only unless if you buy a different pair
