Miyata CF Base + Miyata Handles + KH Cover = Wicked Trials Saddle.

I just got to go take my new Custom CF saddle for its first real ride
and man is it sweet. Its so rigid, zero flex even with me reafing on
it. Ill tell ya once you go CF its like night and day, you never want
to go back to a regular plastic base with a re-enforcement plate.

The Miyata foam is very nice ond low profile so its super easy to go
from Seat in to SIF and vice versa. It also makes it easy to hold the
saddle for SIF hopping.

The only complaints i have are that its not the most comfortable thing
ever, but hey, who acctually "rides" a Trials uni a whole lot anyways,
youre most ly standing on your pedals hopping. And for the amount of
time you are riding the uni its not unbearable. Another Issue is the
handles. But im pretty sure its just because im not used to them yet

The Components are as follows
1. Gemcrest Miyata style CF base
2. Miyata foam
3. Miyata front and rear bumpers.
4. KH Fusion cover.

The KH cover is a bit of a pain to fit on the Miyata base but with a
little patience it goes on.

So my closing word is that if your in the market for a great trials
saddle you should give this a try.

-Phil

Yeah, I'm sure you'll be real happy with that seat when you rip the
front handle off and bend the stock miyata seatpost (really, there's a
reason that nobody rides miyata handles). Otherwise, that's a pretty
good setup. I rode a very similar seat for nearly a year, except with a
duct tape seatcover and airseat padding. Great for trials, but yeah,
not to great for epic muni rides.

UDC doesn't have kinports anymore and mine snapped so easily. Was it
you that drilled your base at the weird angle for the handle? That will
suck if you need to drill it to another bolt pattern because some of
your holes may overlap and you will get oval shaped holes, that
happened to me when I drilled it for a reeder which was at a wierd
angle.

If its only a trials uni then it doesn't matter since you won't be
using the handle for sif anyway.

I re drilled and moved the handle...Its straight now. I have a
question...is it nesscesary to put a rubber shim beween the seat post
and the base or is that just something you can forget about?

See about getting a GB4 seat post to replace the Miyata seat post.

Also, try Darren Bedford at Bedford Unicycles for the Kinport handles.
When Uni.com is out of something, I go to Darren.

Cheers.

Ohhh, I have seen Steve Howard handles on Darren's pricelist and I
didn't realize it is the same as a kinport...so you won't have a
problem getting one.
