I think most trials riders use 137s, while street riders may go shorter, like 127s.
most trials riders are only 137s because KH made them that length. typically trials riders are 145 or 140 street riders typically do go shorter to 125 but plenty ride longer. it is mainly a matter of opinion and personally i prefer 145s for everything on a 20"

one of the companies should make like 133's. something in between the 125 range and 140 range. so that riders that ride trials and street have a nice mix.

hmm...That's funny. I was under the impression that most people considered the 145's that come on the Qu-Ax trials to be a little too long, and that's why Kris made his 137's.
And I also remember when KH sold his trials with 127 cranks (in fact, that's what mine have) and I often have problems bashing my pedals on the ground on turns, so I don't think I'd want any longer.

Wasn't there a thread some time ago about someone proposing the idea of making a 22inch wheel, so that you could have a mix between both trials and muni?

yeah... my qu-ax 145's are way to long for me(i'm short) i hit my pedals on the ground but friend has a torker dx and i never have problems hitting with those... how long are stock dx cranks?

nonsense 145's are the best crank lenght ever. no mention of 145 on profiles of course. maybe people like shorter cranks for trials, i know they suck (no one tell me other wise because this is my opinion and not sure i really care otherwise)
