I'm going to be getting a KH MUni early december. What time does the
line usually refresh? Frankly, the '05s look like they're amazing rides
as is, and I can't think what would be changed. If I miss the new
features, I don't think I'm going to mind much. It'd be nice to know
though :p

The only bit I've heard is a carbon fiber housing for the hub. No idea
if it's still being considered, though.

A new model will be produced for 2006 and yes it will have a different
color to distinguish it from the the '05s. There will be improvements,
but the change is not as different as the '05s were.

I do have a soft spot for carbon fiber.

The "seam" was a groove to make hydraulic brakes “squeak” when the pads
wear too low. (Or something) Consequentially the groove made the side
wall very weak, however for me the problem has been rectified. As far as
I know most of the KH20 05's are now shipped with new KH rims without
the groove, I use the new KH rim without the groove. I don't do very
extreme stuff but did break two of the rims, under warranty, with the
groove in them; the new KH rim is holding up great.

KH should do something about the seatpost, people seem to break it all
the time.

there's really not a whole lot you can do, without getting custom parts
in that area. Rails would be the next step up. And even then, those
aren't that strong. They would make the unicycle heavier.

the next alternative, is a costly one. And that's to go to a thompson
post, with a scott wallis de-rail base. I'm running that set-up with
success, right now. I couldn't be happier with it.

But, it's way more than the average rider requires out of a unicycle.

later,
Evan

Couldn't the rail-thingie be in the way when going soif, or that you
could get stuck with your fingers..

Why don't they make a 27.2mm steel seatpost?
Instead of the aluminium one..

i never really had it happen...but i was indeed worried about my fingers
getting stuck in the rails. There were only a few times where I came
close. But, it was still a scary prospect.

steel would be heavier.

It's just the way that the top of the post fits into the plate. That
weld isn't much for the more advanced riders. From the pictures I've
seen, it looks like they always break there. And, I think, it's
probably due in part to the flex that occures in the front of the seat.
It might not be so bad with carbon fibre.

I don't have any problem with my rails on my seat. I just fit one of my
fingers over the rail, and it works fine that way. I've never thought
about the possibility of getting my finger stuck...

hats off to you, man. seriously.

i used to ride with one finger over the rail, too. wasn't bugged until
recently.

the primary reasons i switched to what i'm riding now:

broke my KH stiffener.
wanted carbon fiber.
lighter seat.
less foam.
get rid of flex.
grips on side of base for seat-out.
thompson going into seat elimanating weight.
back to the miyata design with less curve.

yes, that would be cool. I wonder if they will always be a different
color, or if some colors will eventually get used more than once. It
would be really cool if there was enough of a market that it could be
available in two or three colors each year. 🙂
