  1. I know there's alot of strong opinions on here. So, in saying that, this
    thread will probably be very biased, to both sides. But, i'd like to
    spark discussion, for those wanting to buy another uni, which is better
    in your opinion, and why? keep in mine *REAL* statistics add to cred.

  2. I'm going to compare the kh 19'' trials to the koxx red devil. The red
    devil is heavier, not by much. Most people prefer the kh saddle over
    the koxx, and there is a different tire on the koxx, (which some people
    say is alot bouncier).

    Wow wow wow, Who likes a kh saddle better than a koxx? koxx is all slim
    and sexy and great for sif.

  4. for muni, the frame kinda sticks out a little too much. it just takes
    some gettin used to then it's fine. koxx frame has a shim to fit the
    seat post and when putting the seatpost in it can twist and make
    tightening the seat bolt harder. the bearing housings are not made to
    fit the bearings like kh, unless you buy the xtp or the signature
    freestyle. don't have any experience with kh.

    the same page.

  6. This comparison has been done so many times that posting it means that
    you definatly have NOT used the search function. See that little button
    up there that says search? It has a nice down arrow beside it. USE IT!
    They have been compared in just about every aspect that you would want.

  7. I am not posting here either. If you use the search function and read
    both the PRODUCT REVIEW FORUM designed just for questions like this and
    you read this forum, you will no doubt no my feelings.

    yes, the try-all sticky is quite bouncy but I am pretty sure that is a
    good thing, not a bad.

  8. No, i used the search feature, and I guess i wasn't looking for all
    facts as much as opinions and preferences; backed up by facts.

  9. I like both unis, but I have a koxx.. I`ve tried kh alot, and its great,
    the koxx is great too..

    but I actually like the koxx seat better than the kh seat, I think the
    new kh street seat is too thin, the koxx seat is perfect!

    about the cranks, the kh moment cranks are good, but I like the koxx
    street cranks better, the kh cranks is a bit thin, for flatlanding, but
    the koxx cranks has a tubular shape, and is perfect for both street and
    flatland..

    BUT kh is a great uni, and I think you should deside wich uni you want
    yourself.. both unis are great

  10. yeah the koxx seat is nicer than the KH one... ok a removable cover
    would be nice, but its still a better seat.

    And as for the shim, its hard to shove the seatpost down the frame at
    first, so i put abit of that silicon grease that was left on the pedals
    and slid the tube down. The shim isnt really a perfect solution, but
    its never ever twisted on me. Its a very tight fit allready so the
    double bolt doesnt do much.

    I'm really tempted by the koxx-one street cranks actually.... they look
    very nice

  11. I've not been that impressed with the build quality of my KH. It's
    better than any other uni I've owned but the bar isn't particually
    high🙂

  12. That's the thing about Uni. It is very individual. What I love, you may
    loath and vice versa. In the end, we are really only riding our own
    uni's anyway. Ask friends to let you take thier uni's for a spin, or
    ask people with similar riding styles to yours what they think.
    There is no, which uni is right for me ANSWER. The question is asked
    all the time but thier is no magic "Which Uni is Best" fairy flying
    around waiting to tap you on the head. It's all you man, it's all
    you!!!

    I have a Koxx wheel set, a KH 06 frame,a nimbus gel saddle and a Monty
    tire.
    The rest is all personal choice. try out some of the different types if
    you can and you will find your favorite quick....😄

    wheelset but the KH frame does seem alot better.

    But its all personall, i mean no one has done a proper strain test so
    we dont really know.... i mena so and so broke this and that means very
    little.

  17. someone buy me a Koxx devil, and a KH 2007 trials uni.

    Ill take them to a 8 foot wall, and drop off that wall, landing without
    a rollout.

    Each time Ill record the drop, and write any notice of bending and
    breaking. I will continue to do this until the unis cranks brake or
    bend to the point of not being rideable. I could possibly have a rim
    brake or any other equipment that I will record.

    After I do this with one unicycle I will do it with the other one,
    dropping off the same way, landing the same way, and record everything
    like on the first uni.

    Then I will take both sets of statistics and post up here, so you can
    see which one broke in the least amount of falls, and which uni ended
    up to hold out the best.

    Anyone wanna donate the unis so I can do this brutal test of uni
    strength?

    🙄 😄

    Ha, some sort of machine would be better. Just keep adding force to the
    cranks and when they fail you will have the exact point that killed
    them.
    That doesn't account to fatigue over time though.

  20. I watched this thing on tv were they ested out bmx dirt jumping bikes
    and they put sensers on the axel bolt and the fork/frame and it
    calclated the impact of an average rider on a 10' drop then they knew
    how much force the machine needed to apply. It was purdy neet maybe
    some rich bugger should do somthing like this to solve the K1 vs Kh
    battle.
