  1. I was wondering if there was any difference between a trials frame and a
    freestyle frame. I realize that trials frames have alot more clearance
    but other than that is there really a difference?

    Not at all. You can make a really nice splined freestyle uni.

    Somebody on here has made on with a Koxx hub/crankset and it turned out
    really nicely.

    a 20g tire, oddesy 7ka rim, LX plastics, and a custom frame that evan
    made.

    technically, evan "made" the whole uni. spencer bought it from him. I
    believe he is using his bedford frame on it right now.

    Yeah, Evan paid a whole bunch of money and put it together and then
    wanted money so I paid really little for it and now it's mine🙂

    I think I remember seeing in the koxx roadtrip freestyle vid, the koxx
    freestyle riders were riding on splined cranks.

  9. I think that a splined freestyle unicycle is actually rather dumb,
    because stress isn't put on the hub of a unicycle while performing
    freestyle that would need a splined, and it adds weight.
