A Couple of My Unicycles

What type of seat did he have? My friend has a KH seat with rail adapter
and I can't ride it SIF at all. He somehow gets by though. I have found
that the miyata has a wider rear with a thinner seat plate, giving more
room.

I did have to adapt to it though. I had to move my hand back further
than I was used to before. It feels perfectly natural now though. Also,
I think gripping the seat further back keeps the seat further away from
my body while I am in the air so I am less likely to hit my torso with
the seat (which limits compression).

Yeah man, it's been great to me. The wheel is the most bombproof thing
I have ever seen. I haven't had to touch a spoke in the what 2 years
I've had it. I think it may be time for a new paintjob though. I'm
sticking with army green, its perfect for a muni.

Yeah, it was a KH, fusion I think. That might be the difference. But
gripping further back didn't work on his, Maybe if it was angled more?

I don't know really. I just think the KH's have less room in the back.
Here's a (crappy, disorienting) pic of the space on mine.

Edit: Maybe he didn't have the seat all the way back on the rails too?
