getting a muni!!

That’s gonna be a sweet setup.
You might want to get a seat post and seat to, you will need a post to
mount the brake lever. You could get the KH rail adaptor and a 27.2
post. A cheaper way would to just get the 04 style seat post which has a
post welded on.

It really helps to have a rail adapter, i find it MUCH more comfortable
to have the seat tilted way back
i don't think a profile hub (40mm OD) is going to fit in the KH frame
(42mm OD)
the KH hub is just as strong i believe so go with that, or else you
could maybe find some shims to fit the bearings right

I have heard that the small diffrence in size dosent matter that much,
but if your still worried about it UDC sells shims made just for doing
that.

I think it's mainly the tire, and pedals. A knobby tire, and non
slippery pedals are great for trails.

Scar Head.

Do you have a helmet now? 🙂

If you live in Anchorage, hopefully you have gotten together with George
and Kris Peck by now. George is the "father of Rough Terrain Unicycling.
He prefers that to "mountain unicycling." They're in Seward.

Yes, a MUni will make a big difference on cruising the trails! Every
time I try dirt on a 20", I get amazed at how slow and bumpy it is.

Yes also, "muni" has been municipal for a very long time before we came
along...

Add to that a good (seat) handle, and a strong wheel, 24" or larger.
Higher-end MUnis include a splined hub/crank set and sometimes a
brake.

my question is,are the platforms splined or threaded onto the spindle.If
they are held with double nuts would it be possible to thread the
platforms and use inner locking nuts only.
a pic of the problem (as mentioned by monociclos) would help to get the
problem sorted.
