  3. For muni I like the KH, for trials I really like the miyata, with
    airseat, stiffener, Kinport and the works. I have yet to try out a
    viscount but I am planning on getting one soon.

  4. I've ridden on Torker CX saddles and on the KH that comes with the
    Nimbus II. Guess which one is my favourite.

  6. I want to like the KH, but so far haven't been able to. My main
    experience with it is on my Summit trials, but there is just too sharp a
    curve for my liking. Things get all mashed up and it's hard to rearrange
    on the fly before putting all my weight down.

    So far, my favorite setup--which I have on both my muni and my touring
    36--is a miyata-based airseat. Much less of a curve, much more comfy on
    the jewels. My muni seat I built mostly myself with help from the
    unicycle.com airpillow insert, the gemcrest CF base, a Roach nylon
    cover, and some old miyata foam I carved to help flatten out the lumps.
    My 36-er seat is a similar concept, with the same Roach cover, but
    flawlessly built up by U-Turn. I actually don't know how the guts of it
    work as I don't dare disassemble its perfection.

  7. The KH's ar comfortable, but I am quite partial to the miyata. The KH
    seats curve up too drastically for me, and I always end up on the ground
    holding my crotch and moaning because I landed on a "soft spot" 😉 . The
    miyata seats are more level, allowing me for more "adjustment room". The
    miyatas make better trials and street riding seats, but the KH has some
    applications as well. havent found any, but Im sure its good for
    something!

  9. CF miyata frame w/ Scott Wallis CF handle and bumper, gemcrest cover.

    Also, mine has some little extra mods on it (ie: door edge guards, a
    sticker, thicker foam).

  11. In the past, most of my seats have been modified. But since I got my
    Wilder about two years ago, I've ridden on the seat just the way it
    came. So for factory seats, KH is my #1.

    Then Miyata.

    But customized versions of good seats can make them even better.
    Probably my most comfortable seats are Miyata air seats. I've yet to try
    (or experiment with) the new KH Fusion saddle.

    I think you mean "Poopsaddle™"

    To get the Trademark symbol, it's ampersand, pound sign (tic-tac-toe),
    1, 5, 3, semicolon.

    Sounds stinky.

  17. If I compare the saddles I know :
    Viscount, KH, Qu-Ax for Muni, Myata, Koxx one Gel

    I would say : Koxx One Gel first and then KH
    The Viscount and the Myata are too hard, the QU-Ax (on the muni) is a
    little too wide and as the KH, too thick

    The Koxx one gel is almost perfect for its curve, its wideness and its
    thickness

  18. I'd like to try a koxx one gel for trials. I currently have a KH, and it
    fits me fine, but a smaller saddle would be nice. I'm gonna stick to my
    KH for MUni though. I like it, especially with my stiffener, which
    eliminates all traces of the KH's weird bendyness.
