  1. alright people, im finally gonna break down and get a new unicycle thats
    gonna last me for a while, im torn between the 2007 KH 20"
    http://www.unicycle.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=799
    and the koxx one white widow.(sorry the links for the koxx one didn't
    work, but u can find them at www.koxx-one.com)
    i'd be using the new uni for mainly trials and street and i just want
    to know what you all think would be the best unicycle for the money and
    why? please include a weight of the koxx one if u have it. thanks a lot
    for the help

  2. They're both very good unicycles, the Kris Holm is lighter and the ISIS
    hub is compatible with all the ISIS unicycle cranks available, the
    SNAFU pedals are [censored] but pedals are cheap so you'll just have to buy
    another set. The Koxx is also a very good unicycle but overpriced.

    Weight of the K1 White Widow is around 5.700KG

  7. well thanks for the help? but i've decided to go for the kh 20 just
    based on price and the reviews of so many people, plus on shipping. but
    i do have one more question, how much am i going to notice going from
    125 cranks to 137, i know the longer cranks give more control for
    trials but i also do stree, are they going to work for both or should i
    just get the 125's?

    get 137s I think.

    I use 140s for street, trials, and muni.

    I can clear 8 sets with 140s, so I guess thats enough speed, and I love
    the extra control for trials.

  11. Wait how do you get the Kh as cheaper....Its $447 , the Koxx-one Devil
    is $395, and the Koxx-one white widow is $421....The Kris Holms are
    slightly lighter, .05 kg to br precise. Ive ridin them both back to
    back and could hardly tell any diference in weight at all. But I do
    know that I can go through KH seat posts a dime a dozen, and Koxx-one
    reinforces theres, and now have the Pitfire seat post. in general the
    Kris Holm is a more nockoff version of the Koxx one Devil edition. They
    are both great unicycles, almost identicle in strength as far as I can
    tell, I choose ride Koxx-one because there strength has been proven by
    Yoggis drops of hell! Ive done plenty of drops over 8ft on my blue
    berry and never fazed the cranks, even though the Jimmy C Odysees were
    bent, the cranks were as straight as the day they were born from yoggis
    womb of unicycles. I think the Kh still has a slight Taper in the
    cranks, the K1 is perfectly striaght with no nubs or tapers. So from
    what I have seen koxx one is stronger, but KH is lighter by .05 kg, and
    the white widow you have in mind is cheaper by $26.....you can ge thte
    Widow along with all the devil line at renegadejuggling.com

    When have you ever seen an 07 Kh have any damage done to it? I have
    heard stories about bent koxx cranks and I know the rims aren't very
    strong after seeing yours from a failed 4' drop at cmw.

    How is the Kh a "knock off" of the Devil? Because it uses ISIS hub and
    cranks? that is an international standard and not just a koxx thing
    that kh is copying. Are you thinking about the drilled rim? Those are
    really common on trials bikes.
    You could say that the koxx seats are a knock off of kh because KH used
    the velo seats first.

    So if koxx and kh are just both now using stuff that has been around
    for a long time with biketrials I don't really see how you can say that
    one is copying the other.

    The 4 ft drop was that bent the allready bent rim was the second time
    doing this drop. http://tinyurl.com/yydkcl

    And it was allready damaged from doign a 360 down a 4-5 set ( dont
    really remeber) on a rim with all loose and untrued spokes (I could
    grab them and pull them together with ease, I never checked em lol) and
    the drop bent a poor trueing job done by my lbs. The rim has been
    holding up now after I did my ghetto hammer true and kept the spokes
    tight, the rim that has been bent twice is holding now 8ft drops again
    and staying the same. So thats pretty good in my book. As for the
    nockof statement, from what I have seen in the develpment of Kh is that
    the street saddle was being used first by koxx, koxx was first using
    the drilled rim, and koxx was first using the isis drive in unicycles.

  14. You havent done a 8ft drop on your blue berry. Plus it should be the
    ammount of side loading force that would determine a rims strength, not
    straight down.
