How long are your cranks?
How long are the cranks on your trials unicycle? Saw a thread about where to get cranks and was wondering how long peoples cranks were. If I forgot a length please tell me.

Cranks for trial vary from 135 to 145. Shorter or longer then that you're crazy.
Yes Nathan, you're crazy to ride 114mm cranks on your trials  I have 137mm. |

I use 125's now though. I would prefer is 130's existed but I'm probably going to switch over to 137's in the end. I want to replace my whole wheel, its giving me hell, the K1 cranks keep on getting destroyed and I think the smaller cranks are holding me back for trials, so I might as well give in to public pressure and go with the norm. Quote:
I've never tried flipping my 110's I've tried 125's 137's and 145's. For me the 125s are the easiest but only because that is what I'm used to. I remember Spencer talking about flipping 110's compared to a longer crank and him saying it was quite strange.
