  1. i kinda noticed theyre both amazingly similar. why would you pay like a
    bunch more for the koxx? is it really worth it? just wondering, cuz ive
    heard people on here say they dont like the torker dx and that its
    really ugly, but i think its similar to the koxx.

    the only similarity between the two is the color scheme.
    The Koxx is much lighter and have quality componants like the try-all
    rim.
    Thats why.

    Street moves are for riders who can't clean a trials line. Who needs
    to throw a crankflip when they can land a drop on a rail or rolling hop
    onto a post?

  3. Yeah, the DX is great for being the cheapest splined trials ever, but
    the Koxx is like.... bike trials class....

    The DX isn't ugly. Pfft.

  4. I think the Alex rim is stronger, and heavier than the Koxx. But the
    Koxx hub is much lighter than the Torker (and stronger) and the frame
    is lighter to.

  10. i'm not an expert on either but i've cheaked them both out and the Devil
    uses an ISIS hub so you can have more diverse sizes in cranks and i've
    also heard that the Devil frame is stronger then the DX becaus i've
    heard the DX(in previous models not sure about 2006) crack at the
    bottom of the seat tube because the welds aren't re-enforced very well.

    If it's red that you hate, have another look at the koxx saddle, or the
    color of the decal! Or is it just the location of the color that
    matters? I own the torker dx '06 24", but I was thinking of painting
    them black, but I could just as soon leave them red. I realize that you
    are simply speaking for yourself; I'm sure that there are those who
    like the crank color, and some, like youself, who don't. I happen to
    think it's a nice looking uni, but the pics don't do it justice.

    Dude, he was joking.

    Look more closely at the unicycles, they are completely different: hub,
    tire, cranks, rim, seat, frame, pedals, etc.

    "Dude", look more closely at -my- post. He stated his opinion, and I
    stated mine; no argument. And off course the unis are different; where
    in my post did I state otherwise? Pointing out similarities in color
    schemes doesn't mean there are not substantive differences in the
    components, which is what matters, right?

  13. Sorry, I wasn't referring to your post for the second part of mine. In
    retrospect I should have put that part of the post before the quote to
    avoid confusion. Sorry.

    The first part of my post stands.

  14. They do look the same, but only color scheme wise =p

    Other than that they have a lot of differences, and if i had the money
    i would go for the koxx, but i only had 250 dollars and got the torker
    dx, but it is gonna be good for a starters trial and i still have about
    20 cents left from buying it!!

    Im gonna go buy a stick!!!
