  1. is there anyplace to buy dx cranks? I'm going to buy the trials dx and
    was wondering if all of the parts are replacable. I just want to make
    sure I can get new parts without buying a whole new unicycle. thanks.
    🙂

  2. Well you can go to your LBS all the ones I have ever been to out here
    sell mainly Dx parts. I have replaced most every part from a Bike shop.

    Really? All the crappy shops in my area have only square taper cranks,
    and profile type splined ones.

  4. Qu-Ax cranks will fit. UDC only has 170 mm, but I the only place where
    I could find other size options was 'here '

  7. really? that's awesome! so if I have 170 mm cranks on a 19'' wheel, is
    it basically going to be impossible to pedal without hitting the ground
    on each half rotation?

    no
    i have ridden 175s on a 20" which is how big a 19" ends up being
    anyways
    its a 2.5" tire on a 15" rim
    instead of a 2" tire on a 16" rim...

    EDIT: it sucks though
    you don't want anything longer than 150s ... actually ... 140s are
    plenty long

    Unless you ride exclusively trials and don't do much pedaling.

    uhh
    you don't want 175s
    they are an [censored]
    and you still want 140s; longer and you WILL bend the huband/or break
    the cranks more often.

    Can you give a link? I'm on the verge of getting a new unicycle, and
    while the DX is one of my options, I want the option of getting shorter
    cranks.

    I tried searching here and google before I made that post, and came up
    with nothing.
