  1. Hello, Im am interested in getting a nice trials unicycle. I am big on
    mountain biking and flatland bmx, so i decided to add trials unicycling
    to the list🙂.

    I was wondering if I could get some advice on what bands I should look
    at for a good trials unicycle. I dont mind spending a decent amount of
    cash as long as its quality.

    Thanks!!

    -Greg

  2. For trials...

    Torker DX - $260 from Unicycle.com
    From what I hear it's a good unicycle for it's price.

    Qu-Ax - $323 from Unicycle.com
    I haven't heard of anyone breaking one of these. I think they're on
    the heavier side though. Anyone who knows whether this is true or
    not...feel free to correct me.

    KH20 - $500 from Unicycle.com or $365 from AEBikes (I dunno if that
    deal is still up for grabs...Email them and see.)
    Supposedly is one of the greatest unicycles you can get. I love mine
    and wouldn't trade it for anything in the world. It's the lightest out
    of the three.

    I don't think you can go wrong with any of them. It all depends on how
    much money you're willing to spend (or which one you think looks
    cooler. 😄)

    SEARCH
    what is it with people creating and account and asking the age old
    question "what trials unicycle should i get"

    also why doesn't anyone (or at least most people) mention profiles,
    and K1(which isnt mentioned nearly as much?

    people just dont like k1 for some reason, i always mention them
    though.

    I chose to get a koxx-one for my trials uni. A devil, which is only a
    few grams more than a KH, costs $395 from renegadejuggling.com and you
    can change what colored parts you want and what not. As well as being
    cheapr then a KH they are just as strong. (i know someone is going to
    argue this:p )

    Profiles are too expensive and not many people ride them any more, what
    with all progress and such (ISIS).

    And yeah, a lot of people don't like K1 because of their image and
    pricing.

  7. for the cheapest deal for a decent uni, 'torker dx from brands cycle.'
    (http://brandscycle.com/itemdetails.cfm?ID=5449)

    threadjack: some forums have a block on posting new threads till you
    have posted a set amount (50 would be good). perhaps we should consider
    this for the unicyclist community.
