As promised in yesterday’s 10 Tracks episode, we’re featuring Dylan Canfield’s 2018 QU-AX RGB disc mountain unicycle in today’s Ride Review. Since 2018 Dylan has logged roughly 1800 unipacking and muni miles on this 14.69lb (as pictured) 27.5″ mountain unicycle. The stock version of Dylan’s uni would cost about $750.00 and is a mixture of QU-AX and Kris Holm bits. QU-AX unicycles are designed in Germany and made in Taiwan. Kris Holm is a unicycle and unicycle parts brand out of Canada named after one of the pioneers of mountain unicycle riding.
