Anyone have the new Quax Street frame?

[isaac steiner]

Does anyone have the new Quax Street Frame. Im intrested in getting one...What are they like?

[DustinSchaap]

I havn't ridden it but I've seen it at FLUCK, it's quite a nice frame, looks a bit like the black domina and KH frame in shape. However it's a steel frame so it's like twice as heavy. If you're doing much standup tricks I guess its a good frame to have, I'm not into tech street or flatland so I don't know if it would be good. It's like 20 euro's though so pretty cheap

I would so marry that frame.

[forrestunifreak]

I rode it breifly a few times at FLUCK. I didn't bang my knees on it or anything, but I just rode it a short time.

[Evan Byrne]

Looks pretty bad for crown tricks. The kh is pretty terrible for crown tricks, this looks only a little better. Huge clearance, round front to back crown so sucky for your foot.

[Uniman_3]

it still looks sick looking though, but yeah if its smooth like that it doesnt help either.

[DustinSchaap]

The frame isn't knurled like the KH frame but comes with griptape, not visible on the picture.

[CKCrowe]

is he talking about the cheap 207 buck qu-ax? You'd be a lot better getting the DX, its a step up for a little more.

[LucasWintercrane]

its really not a step up, know things before you brandish them over the internet, the only thing you got right there was that its more!

[isaac steiner]

and the guy at unicycle.com said to get the Quax because he said its better than the DX and he said the DX has problems.

[wickedbob]

That frame looks mad booty dawg..(I meant bad for anything get koxx or kh problem solved.)

[skrobo]

lol
too much clearance, i think they should make like 1/8" clearance for the monty tire on all of the frames, maybe even that much for a creepy crawler... clearance is a bad thing, we want"not rubbingness"

[Evan Byrne]

The knurled crown on the kh does absolutely nothing at all.

[zfreak220]

it raises the manufacturing costs which is passed on to we the consumers.

[CKCrowe]

I wouldnt recamend getting the qu-ax, we had a thread discussion on this, and they said it was only made for 4-6 foot drops, where the DX has taken much more. The DX in 06 had a problem where the frame would always break the 07 version I only know of one ever braking it, and it was skrobo, who takes stuff off huge sets (13 sets ect...) always rolling hopping. I have an 06 DX or 07, idk which, but mine has not broken, and is not near it, I've had it for 7 months, and do huge drops on it, and many street tricks.

(ordered it on January an 06, I dont know which they sent me, some other ppl got 07's when they ordered 06's)

That thread is on the qu-ax cross/entry level unicycle.

[isaac steiner]

Ya well the guy a UDC said to get the Quax because he said it was better because the DX has problems. So ya.

[CKCrowe]

well have fun on it, I hope it turns out great. Prove me wrong please...:D

What are you even talking about? This thread is about a frame. It had nothing at all to do with the unicycle you linked to.

Yeah I looked at that thread and its to a different uni, we are talking about the frame here. That thread you linked to was about the Qu-Ax cross whose hub is not as strong as the Dx and thus cant obviouslt take as big a drop as the DX.

[captainkrunk61]

Yeah, this is about the new qu-ax STREET frame, not the qu-ax CROSS unicycle discussed in the thread you linked to.

[surfer1024]

Is it heavier than the standard frame that comes on the Qu-ax splined trials?

[skrobo]

uhm
i bent my DX frame... its not that bad, but it is noticeable.

[Goats_On_Unicycles]

Qu-ax owns Torker so much.
I've ridden both. I'll never ride another Torker again in my life if I can help it.
Also I think that Torkers are made in China which I don't dig.

Also, Qu-ax holds up to drops better the Torker.

[Chexjc]

I won't say that Torker's are crap or anything. I own a 24" DX. But I also own a 20" Qu-ax trials. I've ridden a number of 20" DX's as well. The Qu-ax just feels better.

are you insane? the qu_ax has one of the strongest hub cranksets ( if not the strongest), a fairly strong rim, a very strong frame, and the seats are good.

they are great.

[Det-riot]

back on subject:

Does this frame fit on a koxx wheelset?

[kerosian]

Yes, they both have 42mm bearings I believe.

[Det-riot]

cool! then i am most liley going to get on to try on my k1 wheel

[kerosian]

make sure you take pictures Det-Riot, so the rest can drool.

[brendan]

yeah some pics would rock. But not sure about the 1kg frame still. I'd take me a while to be convinced.
