  1. I don't know if there's a thread about it aldready but anyway.
    Koxx has a new freestyle unicycle, or at least a new frame.
    It's made of aluminium so it should be pretty light.

    I'm thinking about getting that frame for my freestyle but on the Koxx1
    it says it costs 175 Euro and I don't know if I want to spend that
    much...

    Check the pic!

  2. I ride a few minutes on it (stand up). Yes the crown is realy grippy,
    but it hurts my feets, because the frame is higher on the corners and
    my feet stand only on the corner of the frame. I personaly like the old
    siegmono (or semcycle i think it is the same) long neck frame the most.

    Yes, its a freestyle unicycle... And I still think it would be really
    strong, although not wide enough for a trials tyre.

    Looks really nice, I like the way Koxx is going.

  4. The frame looks gorgeous, but appart from that I have my doubts.

    Like Lutz I like a flat top for standup stuff. I wonder how long it
    will take to break the aluminum seatpost (I killed several steel
    seatpost on my freestyle uni, not to mention my alu trial seatpost).
    Apart from that there seems to be nothing special on this uni, not even
    a splined hub like on the new Qu-ax.

    A truly flat crown alu frame with such a grippy pattern, now that might
    be something! Still I would love to try the Koxx frame, at least they
    are trying something new. I also heard that one of the Koxx-sponsored
    freestyle riders liked the frame alot.

    And KH's grippy crown thing was ripped from the DM Ringmaster Advanced.
    🙄

    The Koxx-One frame looks a lot like a DM Ringmaster Advanced, except
    that the frame is aluminum instead of steel.

    Just making sure we get some historical perspective. 😉
    I doubt that DM was the first to make a frame with a knurled crown
    tube. Everything old is new again.

    I was a little incorrect. The frame is actually more like the DM
    Ringmaster Advanced Custom. The Custom frame had a flat crown like the
    Koxx-One does. The regular Ringmaster Advanced had a slightly sloping
    crown.

  10. I think for all of you who like 20" splined street unis with skinny
    tires this would be awesome. combine this with maxxis hookworm, alex
    triple wall rim, koxx 110 or 125 splined cranks and splined hub, nimbus
    gel saddle, koxx clamp, KH seat post, torker LX pedals,
    drool🙄

    is it availble in the US?

  11. Wonderful, I am glad to see Koxx is still doing something but its about
    time they started producing some Cranks to replace my busted ones
    instead of making some new frame that no one needs.

    MAKE MORE CRANKS

    Sorry about that just I'm sick of riding with my pedals on an angle. It
    is nice to see that Koxx is producing some pretty sweet stuff though.
    This frame looks very similar to the high end miyata frames.

    The frame is 170 euro plus shipping :eek: so it won't be cheap to buy

  20. For about the same price you can get a titanium frame from miyata,
    customized to your lengths of choice. http://tinyurl.com/nqgny
