    Well, I want a distance uni, and I don't really want to get something so
    specalized as a coker, so I am going to go 29er. Here is the plan:
    Used 29er wheel (see below): $125
    New KH Gel Ass Groove seat: $65
    KH Rail adapter: $35
    Post: $28 unless one of the ones I have already fits.
    Clamp: 3 bolt clamp: $9
    Frame: Bedford 28" 3": $60 (unless Ryan makes me one 🙂 )

    Umm, I think thats it. It all adds up to around $325. All prices are
    CND.

    The used wheel is the KH wheel with a cotterless seuze (or however it's
    spelt) hub.

    How does it sound? Any suggestions?

    You could just buy the 'Yuni 29er'
    (http://www.unicycle.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=601) on UDC for less
    money ($285 CND), that is just as good as the one you have spec'd. You
    may want to get different pedals, though.

    Yeah. It would be $285 but you have to add:
    Shipping: $34 USD
    Customs: At least $20 CND
    Mine has a rail adapter, this one doesn't. Mine also has a nicer seat
    so add: $128 for KH seat, rail adapter and post.

    The only reason I would get stuff from UDC is because that A T 7 handle
    looks kick ass. I want one!

    No [censored]! Who doesn't?! 😄

    True about customs. Never ordered from Eh-land myself, but I've heard
    horror stories.

    You would be looking more around 50-70 bucks from Customs.

    But yeah that looks pretty darn good.

    and its suzue :p.

    Whats annoying about customs is usualy stuff doesn't get hit with
    nearly as much if its going from Canada to the US.

    Now for the big question of do I:
    A) Get a KH rail adapter and rail post
    B) Hold out for the A T 7

    Grr, I think that I will probably just get the rail adapter. Are there
    any ways of hooking packs onto unis without the A T 7? It has that nice
    hook thing on the back...

    You can use stems for road bikes and attach handle bar setups and the
    like to them.

    People say you can use the AT7 thing to attach things to it, but one I
    get my AT7 I won't attach anyhting to it. It is too high to have
    weight, and will get you all off balance, it just looks like a disaster
    waiting to happen in my opinion.

    John Childs attaches a rear bag to his custom JC Coker handle all the
    time, and doesn't seem to have a problem.
