You do NOT want a reeder for flatland. I just got mine shoved into my
chest on a missed 540 unispin...ouch.

Yeah, those are good.

I like kinports a lot too when they don't snap in half🙄

I don't know why you'd want either of those handles except for muni.

I like the standard handles because I can switch hands on the fly, and
because, being the cheapskate that I am, they come with the saddle.

the kinports don't seem very ergonomic for you hand though.

hmm, I guess I'll go with D-grip when I get aorund to getting a nice
seat.

Kinports are nice. I like 'em alot better than kh's or miyatas. Mucho
room for your hand. On some saddles, though, the kinport rubs the
inside of my thighs. Just a little annoying but they are way comfy on
the hand.

Jakes got one in his garage on my old monty trials uni. You can try it
sometime.

Well your problem is that you want a handle that fits all styles. For
muni an ergonomic handle would be good, for trials it doesn't matter at
all because people hardly ever sit on the seat, for street it depends
what style you want to do, if you are doing big street that is less
technical (aka no unispins or things like that) then an ergonomic
handle would be ok (Kevin McMullin uses (used?) a reeder). For flatland
or techy street I would not want a deathgrip or reeder. I like the
handle to be symmetrical, it is less limiting that way. It is easier to
do spin tricks in both directions with a symmetrical handle and you
avoid some awkwardness in hand positions.

hmm.

does the kinport handle fit the swallis base?

I could maybe switch out the kinport and D grip if It fits. maybe.

also, in defect it looks like someone is using a white kinport handle.
can you buyt hose?

I don't think the kinports are being sold at the moment. Uni.com hasn't
had them and I don't think Darren is selling them right now. I was
talking to him and I think he said he might get some more in or
something, I don't really remember what he said. You can ask him.

even with a stiffener plate it's way too flexy. reeder is pretty
awesome for uni and trials, though street might be tricky.

mounting Reeder takes time with drilling, etc. It was too much work
for me, so I sent it back. The DG is a slam dunk, just slap that puppy
on there,but costs more. Awesome for MUNI and trials. Never did
flatland or street.

wrist fatigue (I use a deathgrip for trails -not real Muni- and frankly
it changed my life!)

If youve got a cf base, it takes just as long to mount it as any other
handle 😉

I took me all of 5 minutes to mount my reeder handle on a viscount, and
maybe 10 minutes to mount it on my myata w/ stiffener. Reeder owns for
muni and trials.
