Looks pretty nice, but they should put a real KH saddle on there.

Life is not a journey to the grave with intentions of arriving in a pretty well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly declaring, "WOW what a ride!" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ madmattunipro's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/10763 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/45012
heeey, Obie, you're still alive. doesn't look bad...the frame looks kinda crappy though. and they spelled Kris Holm wrong. and a typo in crank length. other than that it looks okay though.

to give anything less than your best is to sacrifice the gift.
That frame looks overbuilt, I think it would hit you legs on it and it would get in the way for some skills, the seat is to thick, the crankset is week. I cant see anyone paying more than $210 for it. Especially when you can get the new torker for a little more.
It's a little disapointing that a company that makes some quality stuff doesn't make a trials uni with a decent hub. Maybe that's coming.
AND, look at the standard unicycles they're selling: http://monty.es/bikes/2006/pdf/unicycle.jpg. Gotta love those metal bumpers. If I was a cycle company I would be reluctant to put my name on those.

Pretty much, those metal seats are the WORST to learn on...they make your legs bleed when you're learning to hop...I've ridden one of those Monty's and they are pretty heavy, the frame isn't the best for one footed or crown tricks. The only good thing i'd say is the tyre...otherwise, they aren't really worth it
