  1. I ordered a new Kris Holm 24" XC Muni today from Unicycle.uk.com.

    It should be with me on Thursday, I can't wait.

  3. Am i right in thinking that the difference between the XC and the
    standard 24" is the tyre and nothing else?

  4. WooHoo!!

    Somebody else in Scotland with a muni!

    Go Innes! Muni is wicked! You'll love being on a bigger wheel!

    Like amanda says, let us know what it's like.

    Take it easy man!

  5. innes,

    You might get lucky and get I a day earlier than expected -

    I ordered a replacement saddle online from Unicycle.uk.com last
    Wednesday at about 2pm and ita arrived first (only) post Thursday
    morning!

    the other differences are that the XC is lighter and has shorter
    cranks.

  8. But presumably the decreased mass is only becasue it has a smaller tyre,
    rim and cranks? 150mm seems a bit of a strange choice, i regularly swap
    betwen 170mm and 140mm on my KH/Nimbus 24", the 140s are still perfectly
    good for off-road and trials, wonder why they decided on two lengths so
    close together?

    I can't see me being able to do jumps like you Tom, but it will be great
    having it for the trails, and some of the hill tracks I am planning.

    I think I will wait before I make that video Amanda, a video of me
    riding through the woods would put everyone to sleep!

    I don't think it will get here before Thursday totally_hooked, that's
    nothing to do with Unicycle.uk.com; parcels seem to slow down a gear
    north of Perth. It would be a real bonus if it did come tomorrow though;
    I have no plans for tomorrow night.

    I did think about just going for the 24" free ride, but the lighter
    wheel and tyre swayed me towards the XC. I asked at Unicycle.uk.com, and
    they said they can supply longer cranks in the future for me if I feel
    the need. With the type of riding I am planning, I will never need a
    full spec freeride; the XC will be more than strong enough for me.
