Broken KH Saddle

whilst rolling hopping a 50cm ledge, the flex in the KH saddle happened
to rip the seat off the plate inside, which creates an extreme amount of
flex, and i can pull the seat at least 2cm away from the top of the seat
post. has anyone else had this problem? heres some photos...and now i
have to fork out $NZ100 for a new one

Blimey, I've snapped 3 KH seats, but not all the way through the
plastic, tho you're farfrom the only one to do it. If you've done that,
see if uni.com NZ have KH carbon fibre bases or if they'll order them,
cuz that's as tough as seat bases get at the minute. You can use your
old handle and bumper and foam and will just need a cover unless you
want to glue theold one to the base.
