Universal Rail Adapter

sabin_a. · 2005-07-27T01:22:49+00:00

Has anyone ever had the thought of making universal rail adapters to fit kh AND miyata style bolt patterns? Seen as how there are not any miyata rail adapters that are being made anymore (well at least more inexpensive ones unlike 'THIS' (http://www.unicycle.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=253) ) It would be nice to get an inexpensive (around $30) rail adapter that will fit kh and miyata posts, It seems like people with miyata seats are comming up shorthanded in terms of rail adapters Your thoughts? -- sabin_a. - skilled unicyclist Homer - "Could Jesus microwave a burrito so hot that he himself could not eat it?"

(http://www.unicycle.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=253)
)
It would be nice to get an inexpensive (around $30) rail adapter that
will fit kh and miyata posts, It seems like people with miyata seats are
comming up shorthanded in terms of rail adapters
Your thoughts?

I've been looking for an inexpensive miyata adaptor too. If it also
worked for KH seats that would be an added bonus I'd be willing to pay
extra for..

Well aparently they do exist if someone has one, but don't the Miyata
and KH not only have diffrent bolt patterns, but arnt curved diffrently?
The KH having a stronger curve especialyy in the front, How does the
universal adapter work? Wouldn't you have to bend it a little to fit on
the miyata or KH seat base? If you went for an inbetween of the two
angles?
Or are the angles so slight you don't even notice.
