    im aware of that
    i was wondering y xav and yoggi use k1 if there so crappy

    Because Yoggi is the Koxx-One manager and Xavier is sponsored by
    Koxx-One? It doesn't matter if the cranks bend after a big stairset,
    they just stick on new ones. Xavier rides with the black domina frame I
    think which is a little heavier than the KH but with plastic pedals the
    black domina weights about as much.

  2. I believe Yoggi is the creator of Koxx-one, and it's probably convenient
    for Xav to use Koxx, seeing as how he lives in France...

    You mean it's heavy, has weak cranks that are promoted as ISIS even
    though they're not and what else?...

    Ok, now i dont really know exactly how strong the bud is, but i can say
    that i have ridden 2 different buds before and i like the feel to them
    a lot better than the kh. flip tricks are a bit easier and just feel
    more natural. Now i own a KH and it isnt exactly indestructible. Ive
    bent 2 rims (one of them a kh) and have broken 2 or 3 kh seatposts and
    probably around 14 kh spokes. i dont really know if the orange bud is
    worse but i can say that it has a more natural feel for flips etc. and
    besides, its like 50 g heavier than the kh. thats barely ne difference.

  11. video? who are you?
    show us something so we can believe it... i took my KH off an 8 set and
    landed sideways ... it WAS fine, i bent it later on, but that was about
    as bad as you can do to a rim and stay on the uni. the spokes are a bit
    of a downer for the Kh, as they are 13 ga...
    i have done stuff to my KH i didn't think i would ever do on/to a
    uni... and that i wouldn't do on anyone else's uni.
    btw... my rim is very nearly straight now after being bent to the
    frame.

  15. Personally I think it is a very biased arguement when the K1 vs KH topic
    arises. I don't really want to be "That Jackass" to point this out,
    but I can't help but think that the reason that so many people prefer
    the Koxx-one uni's to the KH is because of the slight price difference.
    REALLY THOUGH? If these uni's were the exact same price, I have a
    hard time believing that the same amount of people would still be
    riding the K1's. Koxx-one ARE great unicycles. I own both
    manufacturers products. I have to admit that there are so many little
    things that make the KH line nicer.

    When I was researching which uni's to buy I had to take it into
    consideration that some of you younger guys on here are pinching
    pennies, or relying on parents...or cashing in on gifts. As was I when
    I was younger. All of the price war talk did make it very hard to tell
    what was really the better buy.

    I'm sorry if I offended anyone with this...I guess I'm good at it every
    so often...🙁

  17. I just bought a koxx uni and I am very pleased with it. It's a very,
    very well built unicycle. I think alot of people miss the point when
    it comes to higher end unicycles. They each have their pros and cons.

    Once you get to the point of spending $400+ on a wheel and seat, you're
    pretty much getting the cream of the crop and brand name becomes
    personal preference. There's nothing worng with a Kris Holm uni.
    They're awesome, no arguements. However, so are the koxx1 unis. I
    personally prefere the koxx1 unis over the kris holm because it would
    be easier for me to get parts (I haven't needed parts yet by the way).

    If you want the orange bud, get it. It's a great uni. However, if you
    want the Kris Holm uni instead, get that. There's no real reason to
    nitpick over one or the other because they'll both get the job done.

    http://renegadejuggling.com/Web_store/rev3k/index.html that's were to
    go for a koxx1. There is a note about ordering XTP's and Orange Buds
    and a phone number to call on that page.

    If you want a kris holm uni go to: www.unicycle.com they can get
    almost anything you might want in the way of unicycles.

    Sure there is. I dont want someting that looks like a it was made as a
    school project. I want something pretty and that looks nice. Of course
    function comes first, but its not the only thing that comes into play.
    When I am buying a snowboards I know what couple brands to look for,
    but the graphic plays a roll.
