non-splined hub

160-175mm i would be using this for light MUni most likely so im
looking for something strong but i dont want to spend the money on a
splined set up.

most non splined hubs are the same in terms of strength i think...there
isnt really a best or worst. i would recomend saving for a splined
it'll be worth it in the long run.

There has been at least one other discussion on this in the not so
distant past. Maybe try a search.

Life is not a journey to the grave with intentions of arriving in a
pretty well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly
used up, totally worn out, and loudly declaring, "WOW what a ride!"

yeah well i already have a splined MUni, but see at school im part of
this thing we call outdoor ed where we go whitewater canoeing, and we
do some hiking. I asked the teacher if i could bring my MUni on the
hikes and he said i could. I dont really want to bring my Splined one
to school, because if someone stole it, or broke that would be bad. So
i thought a lighter MUni with a little less value would be a good idea.
None of the riding would really require a Splined hub, so im not too
worried about busting it up on the trails. The only other option would
be to beef up my sun 28 with a different tire and the allow rim.

maybe you could buy a cheap muni like the nimbus and upgrade witha qu-ax
hub and cranksetthe whole thing would costya bout 350 from UDC or you
could just do a nimbus without the qu-ax hub...its up to you.

Renegade Juggling has the Koxx ISIS hub and cranks for not much more
than a square taper setup:

Actually a decent square taper setup would be about the same price, or
a little more. The cost is in the cranks, not the hub.

hey can anyone tell me what would be the best NON-SPLINED hub and
crankset to get for a 24-26 inch uni?

What do you mean by "best"? I think the strongest non-splined
unicycling hub is the Muniac Drastic Light Foot. But it is expensive
and (I think) you can't change the cranks yourself.

http://muniac.com/store/dlf_86.htm

If you are getting a non-splined hub make sure it is cotterless not
cottered. And if you want it to have any strength get one that is CroMo
not standard steel.

eg http://www.unicycle.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=738 from
unicycle.com which at $25 (+$25 for cranks = $50) is cheaper than Koxx
splined $69 (+$79 for cranks=$148), but the splined hub & crankset will
be stronger.
