New Koxx Muni

I was just checking pricing on renegade and saw 'this'
(http://www.renegadejuggling.com/Web_store/rev3k/index.html). It looks
nice and its says its different then the track monster, so I thought I
would just show you guys. Any thoughts?

Whoops sry, link doesn't work for some reason. Just scroll down to the
unis section...you'll see it

If you are in Santa Cruz, you should stop by Tom's shop and check it
out.

I think that you will be bummed out by the 140mm cranks if yuo are going
to be doing MUni. Also why not have the brake mounts. The narrower fork
is good but from the picture I can't tell if it is rounded at the
corners like the KH. If not you will bang up the insides of your
knees.

Wow, that's really cool. It's almost like a big devil. I like the
seat/frame color combo alot. If I didn't already own a 26" track
monster, I'd be all over that uni like flies on [censored].

I'm not so sure I like the idea of not having brakes though. It can be
difficult to stop quickly without brakes sometimes. As a matter of
fact I just hit a car this morning with my track monster. I couldn't
grab the brake fast enough. Just think how bad it could have been if I
had I no brakes.

Brakes or not, after the abuse my uni has taken and held up I am a huge
K1 fan.

I'd think 140mm cranks would be fine for some fairly technical stuff
whilst still allowing you to get up a reasonable speed on the flats. I
guess that and the lack of brake mounts suggests they're not aiming for
the really really extreme stuff.

Dave: Just a question. What use is a unicyle with no seat? And no
pedals!
Mark: To answer a question with a question: What use is a skateboard?
Dave: Skateboards have wheels.
Mark: My wheel has a wheel!

Isn't that just this unicycle? http://tinyurl.com/yvcmat because the
link just linked me to the mainsite instead of a product. 140mm is good
for muni. Crank length is a personal choice, you can't say 140mm sucks
for muni just because you either havn't tried it yet or didn't like the
experience.

So all they did was change the frame and put a different name on it?

Isn't that the frame with the iridescent paint job that looks so
awesome?

That seat is not so good looking for MUni though. 😕

140mm cranks are not optimal for MUni. Yes you can get great spead with
them but you will suffer on climbs and have a harder time balancing on
technical sections. Kris Holm himself always used 165mm cranks for
MUni. He only went to the 150mm cranks after starting to use brakes. He
has mentioned before that you wouldn't want to do any serious downhill
MUni with cranks shorter than 165mm without a brake. So giving such
short cranks without a brake option is not ideal in my opinion. But hey
each to his own.
