Are the holes in the rim such a good idea? I know they're common in
trials bikes, but don't unicyclists put more/different stress on their
rims? I asked a bike trials guy if it weakened it any and he said
yeah, but as long as you have good "technique" it won't be a problem.
I don't know, kinda scares me.

Off topic: whats the reason for Q-factor anyway?

From sheldonbrown.com

(only disadvantages of Q-factor)

That doesn't seem to answer forrestunifreak's question. The reason for
Q-factor is that the cranks have to run outside the wheel. Contrary to
Sheldon Brown's story, many unicyclists like it if their steed has
some Q-factor, even more than strictly needed for above reason. Higher
Q is often accomplished by angling the cranks out (and is sometimes
regarded as being the same - but it's not). This can be for improved
stability in trials and MUni, or for not bashing your ankles on the
cranks. However, for high cadence unicycling, as in racing, a low
Q-factor is generally preferred.
