    They're all KH style bases, handles and similar vinyl + kevlar covers,
    they're all made by the same people (velo), so I'd guess they have a
    similar padding in them.

    The koxx ones have pretty pattern covers but cost lots more. It's not
    obvious from the pictures whether they have more or less kevlar on the
    sides, but they look very very similar. The old koxx gel saddle was
    pretty close to identical to the KH gel saddle.

    I'd say the best one is the Kh / unicycle.com one, just cos it's loads
    cheaper.

  9. How much are the KHs? Cause I like the look of the Koxx more, and I
    need to get Novus polish anyway.

  10. the Kh ones were $40 last time I saw them on UDC. UDC said theyll be
    getting more in april. Are gel saddles much better than normal because
    I haven't actually ridden one.

    no.

  12. same, hopefully if I go to MOAB some1 will have 1 I can try, cause I
    dont really want to spend $70 plus shipping for a saddle that ive never
    even actually seen.

    Yikes! $70 for a basic saddle with a plastic base? Not worth it.
    Might as well spend a little bit more and get something built on a
    carbon fiber saddle base.

    Why do you need a gel saddle on a trials unicycle? You're not going to
    be sitting on it for extended periods like a Coker.

    If you have a KH seat you can turn it into a carbon fiber based seat
    and have a much better trials seat. You can even cut the foam down to
    make it better suited for trials. Use the hardware, handle, bumper,
    foam and seat cover from the KH. Trim the foam down so it's not as
    thick. Put it all on a carbon fiber base and shazam. You don't even
    need to use KH foam. I used foam from an old Viscount saddle and that
    works fine for a trials, or even a freestyle unicycle.
