  1. Just wondering if anyone out there is riding the limey yet?
    Im thinking about buying on, or a k1 uni from renegadejuggling right
    now.

    So its obvious im no longer with torker, and they didnt produce
    "Evolution". But my room mate is also prodcuing a uni movie so we'll be
    selling the videos as a box set i suppose.

    but back to the limey, if anyones riding one id definitely like some
    feedback on it. I know some bike trials guys that use tensils.

    also is it worth it forking out almost $500? or is the limey a pile
    haha.

    alright cool thanks if you got any feedback guys, time for karokee
    night at VFS!!

  2. Honestly, it's going to ride just like any other Trials unicycle.

    The only BIG difference is that it has Tensile cranks, which are pretty
    popular as you mentioned, among the bike trials community.

    It's a very good Unicycle for sure, except for that frame.

    I believe the Tensile cranks are what is making it cost so much.

  8. It looks cool but those end caps are sooooo pointless and totaly kill
    the whole uni. I would go with a KH or a nimbus or a Koxx. They are all
    pretty much the same, only difference is in the rims and the frames.
    Koxx has the good lowriding steel frames and KH has the good aluminum
    ones, Nimbus is just cheap and pretty good, plus they got those sweet
    long necks.

  9. I think one of the best options out there right now is the Nimbus ISIS
    with crank upgrade to moments. I'm riding it and I love it, so does my
    wallet. The clearance of the Nimbus II frame is almost as low as the
    Koxx frames, it comes in at 10mm.

  12. Get a KH wheelset without cranks, the Tensiles, a Monty Eagle Claw tire,
    a quax aluseatpost with gusset, a KH frame and the seat you like

    Or if you dont want a realy light uni or a kh frame... get the Nimbus X
    Street frame.

  14. What's DH pro?

    Also, what do people think about th'is Onz'
    (http://tinyurl.com/yqn7lc)a? The frame looks better than the other
    one. How strong is it, particularly the rim. I'm thinking of getting
    one.

  18. How much have you spent on it? In europe it is 40€ more than the KH and
    has no advantages if you dont look on the design, but for 40€ you can
    powdercoat your KH.

  19. Hey! Somebody tell me what they think of t'his Onza'
    (http://tinyurl.com/yqn7lc)!

    Particularly, how strong is the rim and how good is the frame. They say
    it's Nimbus II style frame, I don't think I've ever ridden a Nimbus. Do
    you bang your knees. How good is it for feet on the frame tricks? I'm
    considering buying that uni.

    As been said already, its the same unicycle as the Onza Limey
    practically just with different colors. Personally, I think you are
    better off going with the Nimbus ISIS and upgrading the cranks to
    either the KH moments or the Tensile cranks. The frame on the Onza is
    just terrible, it's clearance is way too high - bringing it closer to
    your knees, and once the plastic caps are gone your legs will be
    ruined. It looks sort of like the Nimbus II style frame but there are
    many key differences which make worse.
