  1. Well, i just thought id say i broke my seat post yesterday. it is one of
    the traditional KH ones here

    http://www.unicycle.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=667

    I was going for a hop *up* onto a few stairs on my Muni and she snapped
    off so fast i didn't have time to think what happend. I went up with
    the seat in one hand and my feet kicked the uni down into the
    pavement.

    I wish i had pics but dont. Well its not that big a deal anyway.

    It broke just under the seat where u bolt it on. If u look its
    obviously the weakest part of the seatpost. I slapped my adjustable KH
    seatpost back on now. I think i will try one of those Koxx reinforced
    seatposts next.

  2. Have you thought of using a chromoly seatpost instead of alloy, it will
    be much stronger. The 350m ones here

    Chromoly is heavier but if you're breaking alot of seatposts it is good
    to get something stronger
