Having learned to ride on a generic 20" uni, I recently purchased my first
decent one (a 24" muni) from unicycle.com <http://unicycle.com>. I am very
pleased with it... except for the saddle. They had several options available
with the KH saddle. I think I might have made a bad choice. You can just
take the standard; or you can pay $15 to get the Fusion (removable cover);
or shell out $40 for the "air saddle." That sounded comfy, and the seat I
learned on was not, so I went for it.
The air saddle is merely a KH Fusion saddle with the foam padding removed
and and inner tube folded up and slightly inflated. I knew this before I
ordered it. They said "a lot of people really like it." But riding on it
feels like... well, like I'm riding on a folded up inner tube. It is soft,
but it's lumpy and gives a feeling of instability.
Does anyone out there use and like the "air saddle" and have any advice for
how to adjust mine? Or maybe you have tried and disliked the "air saddle"
and have since found one you do like? If so, please let me know. Is the KH
Fusion with the standard foam padding perhaps better in some people's
opinion? If so, maybe I should ask unicycle.com <http://unicycle.com> if
they can at least send me a foam pad to try in place of the inner tube.
Thanks! I'm having a blast learning...
