  3. Back when I first started here, this uni was getting some discussion. I
    would recommend doing a search on it. I think some riders were
    concerned with the side tire clearance.

    Here's my two cents. The uni comes with a 24" frame, not the 20"
    frame. The 20" won't clear the tire, however, after a suggestion by
    Bevan(Gerbelfranklin), in which he took his 20" United frame and placed
    shims on top of the bearings, he could get the tire to fit inside the
    20" frame. I did the same and had good results. The clearance on the
    20" frame is probably tighter than the 24", but it still works, and I
    don't get any rubbing, even with a slightly out of true wheel. I think
    the 20" frame looks better. Weight savings over the 24" frame isn't
    much.

    Also, I believe there may be some discrepancy with the weight listed on
    uni.com. Though, I am not sure. I weighed mine once with a cf base,
    and I think it was 12.5 lbs, but not sure. That's with sunringle
    pedals, gb4 seat post and cF seat base.

    I would just get the kh and use the saved money to buy yourself a cf
    base and build up a stronger seat.

    Cheers.
