New koxx ISIS light?

Yeah, I saw that stuff too. I want one of those new seat posts. The
"ISIS Light" cranks dont look to shabby either. I wonder how strong
they are though. Someone get this new stuff and test it out!

I would assume that the light means light duty. It says for flat,
freestyle and muni. They excluded trials and street so I think that it
is lighter than the old hub but is not as strong.

i was browsing the koxx site looking at the new seat post and black
domina frame and saw the new sight isis hub.

are we to assume that this is the same ISIS spec as the normal ISIS hub
andr not that of say the KH?

also some new ISIS light cranks in 90mm and 140mm.

wonder how good these are?

they look neat as.

i got my koxx isis cranks a while ago, the new reinforced ones say
reinforced on them, are these the exact same as mine with reinforced
written on it, or are they a different design?

Oh, to get to your questions. I didn't look at the hub so I cant help
you there, But Id be guessing that the "reinforced" cranks on the
website are the same as yours now. It just says reinforced to tell them
apart from the "Light" version ones.

From the looks of things, the Light hub, is essentialy a normal hub but
much more hollow. The cranks look to be about the same idea, same as
the old but more thin.

I personaly would love to try the 90 mm cranks. The second I saw them I
nearly wet myself.

It would certainly make sense for them to do that, or at least adjust
it to be closer to other unicycle manufacturer's specs. Since their
cranks already fit on other companie's hubs, they might aswell move
their hubs over so that both their cranks and other's cranks would fit.

to recognise the light from reinforced, its easy, the light are like KH
moment, straight, while the reinforced are abit diamound shape from the
side.

Also i wonder how strong the stuff is, but also i wonder about the
ISIS. It'd be great if they had sorted it out.

Yeah, it's about time that ISIS is adopted for "light use". Just today
I had to replace my freestyle cranks (they once loosened and since then
made noises and always loosened again). 102mm would be nice as well. Do
I see a new "Signature" in the works? 😄
If it weren't for the ISIS-issue...

Maybe we finally get some decent cranks for the Quax ISIS hub. I still
can't believe that they apparanetly had no idea what the popular
crank-lengths in freestyle-unicycling are 😠

I've had the Qu-Ax "profi" freestyle I think it's called with the light
ISIS hub and cranks. Even with a heavy frame the whole thing just feels
so stinking light.....

114 is sorta too short for my liking though... I couldn't imagine 90 mm
cranks, even on a freestyle.

Whenever I switched to shorter cranks (using 102mm now) it took me some
time to get used to it, but I loved it in the end.
Overall I got the impression that many freestyle riders ride 102 or
even 90mm cranks, thats why I was wondering about Qu-ax. I am also a
bit sceptic about the round shape of the Qu-ax cranks, are they hard to
stand on (e.g. for wraps)?

No, they are actually fine to stand on. I've gotten used to them, I
just don't like standing on short cranks for crank tricks. But, if I
rode purely freestyle I would like that size of crank....

Sort of a threadjack here, but all ISIS hubs and cranks are splined,
correct? The Qu-Ax 20" Cross Unicycle on UDC (
http://www.unicycle.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=797 ) is listed with an
ISIS hub and cranks, but there is a warning about not exceeding 10"
drops with a non-splined hub in the description.

that is indeed pretty confusing. basically the red qu-ax hub is like the
koxx light hub except they tried to sell it for cheap trials instead of
freestyle.

The hub is basically weaker but still has splines, and the cranks are
quite light. Not sure if 10inches is abit exagerated though.

And yes ISIS means splined, ISIS just means 10 splines on the hub/crank
of the same size/width waterver.

I would recomend it over square tapered though, at least it shouldnt
come off or anything and will be definately stronger.

UDC UK says

Quoted message said:

Quax ISIS Freestyle Cranks

Lightweight cranks to fit ISIS hubs, designed for freestyle riding not
heavy jumping.

so they actually call them freestyle cranks. UDC USA has a mistake in
the text.
