Dx cranks=ouch

Though I could be wrong, I saw a thread a while back on this subject and
someone said something like the bmx redline cranks are the only ones
that will fit. Those only come in 175mm or 180mm which I think is way
too long unless your strictly riding uphills.

So i'd say just be more careful and practice more to reduce the risk of
landing an 8 set wrong..

I might be wrong but i think the 05 KH cranks work. I wouldnt count on
it but they might fit. Other than that just live with it because they
arent that bad.

The only cranks I know that fit it are ones from redline, but that would
be way to big for a 20inch. It would work for a muni. It would give you
tons of torque.

If they bother you a lot go out and buy some 661 ankle biters. They are
designed specifically to protect your ankles, mainly from the cranks
hitting them. They work perfectly.

The dx does have a redline only spindle. you can use only DX cranks.
besides, getting the ankle protectors would be a lot cheaper.🙂

Dude, '05 KH cranks are 36 spline. DX are 10 spline.

O yeah, Jerrick, you said somewhere that you ride 145 cranks, but you
ride a DX. Where did you get those?

Never mind, I see. you're right:o. wouldn't those strip easy with such
small splines. That reminds me, I should change my socks more often.
every time I stick my foot in my mouth it tastes really bad:p.

I remember that. It was a typo though. DX cranks are 125s or 127s.

I have ridden 145s, and dont find too much of a difference from the DX
cranks.

Actually because profiles, if measured, go to 150, that what I have
ridden on. Even though the site says 145s.

Nope. Not once have I heard of splines stripping. Profiles have 48
splines and they are also one of the strongest crank/hubset.

uhh i disagree they ARE the strongest hub/crankset
I was talking to a guy at the bikeshop and he said that the potnazer?
hub is not the strongest, they make another that is ... but they only
make it for bikes

I use my dx for muni but I've never had any problems with them. My dad
has sixsixone ankle biters and he has no complaints. how much do they
cost?

Since puting on Qu-Ax 170 mm cranks on my 24" DX I no longer have
problems hitting the cranks (it happened all the time before w/ the
stock 150mm). 170 mm is way too long on 20, unless it's strickly for
trials.

I now have a lot more control and it's not much slower.

So basically, don't do 8 sets anymore until you've practiced, and
gotten good at landing 8 sets.

Wait a minute...

I have the same problem, bcdude...the inside of my ankles are filled
with scars from slipping while hopping. That really hurts, because
it's just thin skin over bone.
