Qu-Ax vs DX for urban MUni

I know that this has been asked before. But I guess I just don't accept the answer. Besides, these forums exist to talk, so why not just rediscuss things?

So, basically, I was just wondering which is better for all around riding: street, distance, MUni, light trials.

I have an LX now, and as a starter unik* it's great. But I've only been riding for a couple weeks and I'm already getting the itch for a unik that doesn't seem like it's going to break every time I try to do something other than just ride straight.

So, the real question is is the DX far and away that much better than the LX? And forget price, which one Qu-Ax or DX is better/stronger/better seat/better peddals, better rim and tire...

Oh, and what is Qu-Ax's reasoning behind using such long crank arms?

Just put the new uni together in the driveway stopped to move the car and ran over the uni.
Felt like putting my head under the tire.

The QU-AX and the DX are very similar. They are both pretty heavy but the DX has better pedals. Also the DX is cheaper.

And the DX frame is supposed to be pretty weak. The Qu-Ax muni has a decent frame, but the stock pedals are pretty bad.
