JohnnyReggae Posted October 31, 2009 Share Arranged a trade in on my old Qu-Ax Cross 24" for a new KH 24" Mountain Uni. It has already been on a ride, hence the dirt Huge thanks to Alan at OddWheel Unicycles Parts KH 24" 2009 Frame KH 36 Hole 47mm Rim KH 2009 Moment ISIS CrMo Hub KH 125/150mm Moment Cranks (Dual Hole) - from my Qu-Ax uni Jim Cielencki Odyssey Pedals - from my Qu-Ax uni KH Forged Seatpost Qu-Ax MUni Saddle (with custom Cow Skin cover) Duro Wildlife 24"x3" Tyre At around 2kg's..... yes 2kg's ... lighter than my Qu-Ax, the KH feels so nimble. Tackling any uphill is so much easier as I have more power-weight torque. Downhills and drops are a little trickier because the KH responds so much faster and also doesn't have the weight momentum to roll over roots and rocks as easily. Overall a great uni and so looking forward to bombing down more technical single tracks with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WOFT Posted October 31, 2009 Share I love the saddle! That is a serious weight saving. Does it make a noticeable difference to your riding? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyReggae Posted November 1, 2009 Share I love the saddle! That is a serious weight saving. Does it make a noticeable difference to your riding? The weight has definitely been very noticeable, more than I thought it would be. As for a difference to my riding.... hard to tell as I have only been on one ride with it so far. Looking forward to the Downhill event in Paarl this morning to see how it handles the larger drops.... I suspect that it will handle a lot better than I will .... definitely going to bring out all the protection gear for this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyReggae Posted November 3, 2009 Share Where is the gears?? Nutter. RESECT dude watched some of those video's on youtube you guys are freaking mal.Cheers ... thanks Would love to add a geared hub to my setup, but at around R12 000 for the hub alone.... I think I'll stick with the single speed. Besides the extra gear in the geared hub will be too much for the technical downhill stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
