    I'm thinking of odering a complete custom unicycle, as you
    might of heard in the hub and crank thread I made. I was
    just wondering what tools are need to put custom parts
    together. Right now I'm looking at Bulletproof alloy
    platform pedals, Kris Holm saddle, Arrow Racing Trials
    Wheelset with Profile Hub and Crank Arms, and the frame I
    havn't decided yet, maybe the Yuni Frame w/Gloss Black
    finish or the Kris Holm 20-inch Trials Frame.

    SO WHAT TOOLS WOULD I NEED TO PUT THIS TOGETHER OR
    TAKE IT APART?

    WILL ALL THOSE PARTS FIT TOGETHER?

    IS THERE ANYTHING I'VE MISSED THAT I'D NEED FOR A
    UNICYCLE, I HAVE THIS GUT FEELING THAT THERE'S SOMTHING
    I'VE SIMPLY FORGOTEN?

    Thanks in advance guys, I know you'll help me out.

    add a seat post and a seat post clamp and you'll be able to
    sit on the seat when you ride.

    Also, does the wheelset come with bearings? make sure that
    you check to make sure that the bearings work with
    whatever frame you decide to use... shims work well if the
    bearing is too small, but if it's too large, that takes
    another approach.

    Ok, it says this, on the Yuni frame.

    Seat tube: 22.2-mm (7/8-inch) inside diameter Includes Primo
    Viking 2-bolt seat post clamp, black bearing brackets and
    chrome bolts/washers/nuts.

    What seat post will work with that, the viking clamp and the
    kris holm saddle?
