I just finished editing a Freewheel video that I filmed in the beginning of autum. Enjoy watching me riding up and rolling down my hometrails on the Qaxle Freewheel prototype hub, that I have been testing since January 2020!

Wow I've never seen someone look so comfortable on a freewheel, that's pretty cool. Would you say you're just as comfortable and solid on the trails with the freewheel as a fixed hub?

Thank you both! Phil you should definitely get a Freewheel. Learning it is the same joy like learning to ride the unicycle again and you definitely have the skills to learn it quickly.

It really depends on the trail. On the ones in the video I feel 99% as compftable as on the normal Muni. But when the trail gets more technical it gets constantly harder. I really love to ride flat technical stuff with lot of rocks and roots and that is still a huge problem with the Freewheel for me. But on the other hand riding those with my Freewheel I am still better than most average Muni riders because no one like to ride flat rooty stuff. But as long as you have the gravity on your side even harder stuff is possible, but it's way harder than on the fixed wheel. And that's the thrill with Freewheel unicycling, you want to be able to ride that what you ride with your fixed on the Freewheel.

This makes me miss my freewheel so much! I always wanted to try with brakes too, but the hubs I used kept breaking from even small stuff like 180s so I never got around to it unfortunately

The hub Qu-Ax is producing should be way more stable than the square taper hub. The Nimbus hub is known to breake quite easily. Back when I had the Nimbus I reduced my riding to a minimum, didn't do any uphills because I was already to see it slowly breaking after 300 km.
