  2. I have the 24" Qu-ax Muni and I find it's great. It's beefy and strong.
    I find it a real tough uni. The only drawback you might find is that
    the hub is 10 splined so if yr into swaping out parts you'll have to
    stick with the Qu-ax cranks and/or hubs. I can't see you breaking
    anything though with the abuse I put mine through the only thing that's
    happened to mine is lost some stickers and scratched up the paint and
    seat bumper.

    Here's some pics I took of it the other day... there's even my first
    uni vid with me on the Qu-ax.

  3. Good, good good and good.

    Go for it.

    Light, strong, and not too expensive.

  4. what about the seat?
    right now i am really getting annoyed because the seat i currently have
    clings to my jeans and rubs my skin and it hurts like hell (shut up
    gui, not that kind of hell) and i really want a seat with less friction
    on your pants...

  5. I was gonna say I like it just fine, and not worry about the hell bit.
    Why do you always assume I will get offended at the slightest mention
    of religion? Why does nobody love me? *sniff*sniff

  8. does anyone know what the best price for the 20" splined trials qu-ax
    is? i see it's on UDC for $299, but is there a better deal elsewhere?
    i've finally decided to upgrade from my torker CX, but i'm on a budget
    as i'll be going into art school soon.

  14. Yeah, but I think the seller may have been trying to rip me off.

    3 weeks after mailing the money order and receiving no unicycle he said
    "hey, send the money!"

    We scaned the receipt and emailed that to him, and what do you know!
    Next morning The money order had reached his house! that's oddd....

    Oh well, At least I will be recieving a new unicycle by next week.

  16. dang, now i'm seriously considering the torker... wish there could be
    free shipping with the buy it now option, but i guess you can't have
    everything... i'm gonna wait for some more product reviews of both the
    qu-ax and torker until i make a decision.

    if anyone owns either of them, 20" splined, could you please post any
    sort of performance review? whether it's concise or more detailed, i'd
    appreciate it. before christmastime would be nice 😉

    btw, which seller was it that you had some trouble with spudman? there
    are currently 2 sellers with 99.9% positive ratings who are selling the
    new '06 dx, and both auctions come out to about $260 including shipping
    [for my location anyway].

    also, i notice a bunch of you are from arizona. i'm going to be heading
    out there in december on a road trip with a few friends to visit a guy
    we know who moved out to phoenix [i think that's where, i'll have to
    double check, might be helpful for the trip haha]. not sure if i'll
    have any time to stray away from the group [i'm pretty much the only
    unicycler in the group going] to go uni at all, but are there any areas
    you might recommend checking out? IF i get a new uni by then, it might
    be good times. otherwise i'm still stuck with my torker cx [older
    version].
