Frame for Torker DX

Okay so I am getting a new frame for my Torker DX 20" and I need help finding out on a frame that would fit. http://www.unicycle.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=610 Does anybody know if this would fit? If it will, can anybody tell me if it is worth getting?

Also, if this does not fit or it is a crappy frame, can you reccomend a good one for me? I DO TRIALS! It is a 20", not a 24" if you didnt notice.

I have heard the Nimbus II frame is good but I can not find one on www.unicycle.com. Well not at least on the US one because I don't know if different countries have diffeent products.

No good. It's probably a good frame, but it fits a 22.2mm seat post, and the DX has a 25.4 seat post. Go with a nimbus II frame, VERY strong and will be compatible with the DX.

That black powercoat YUni frame is the bedford frame. Same thing. Its a nice frame, I have one. It does the trick. You will need a new seatpost for it. a KH frame would also be a good option .

Yuni holds 22.2m seatposts, keep that in mind.

I did the same thing as he did along with my brother and friend the frame is awsome. you need to get a new seat post but that just gives you a reason to get a GB4 22.2mm. My frame was powder coated black and cost about $97 us with shipping. the seat post costs 22 us from udc.
