  1. Hey i have a DX if everyone doesnt already kno. I cannot do a crankflip
    on it, it is sooo heavy, i was wondering wht are the heavy parts of the
    Dx, tht i could replace to make it a lot lighter in a reasonable
    price.

    Right now i learn and pretty much converted back to doing everything on
    my super light crome unicycle.

  2. It's probably not the weight thats not allowing you to do crankflips.
    Just practice, you'll get it. My friend has a DX and does crankflips no
    problem.

  3. uhm
    i find it about 20 times EASIER to make the wheel flip on my DX. Other
    than that, go do a 10 foot drop just to break it in... lol

    Trust me, its not the weight thats keeping you from landing them, keep
    practicing. Relative to other unis it might be a bit heavier but in the
    big picture its only by a pound or two and that really isn't much
    weight.

  5. I have done crankflips on a dx, I didn't notice much difference. I doubt
    the dx will hold you back from doing anything because of its weight
    (other than really fast tricks), it just might require more effort than
    on a light uni.

  6. k, then it could be the height or something, because i cant get it to
    flip at all it comes out way in front.
