Yeah i've been looking at those too Ken, though at $60 i can't imagine
they're as good as the KH brand. But they do look like a pretty good
deal. I like the yellow and grey one 😄

Pete,

Yeah, I'm not sure how strong it is but it may make a good seat
transplant (cover and foam) onto the Carbon seatbase. It only costs $10
more than the fusion seatcover.

*Ken, the reason you have not seen this variation of a KH seat is
because it is not a KH seat, is an inferior mockery of one. What are
you even doing browsing the unicycleshop website? They are the
competition and they sell inferior products at low prices to tempt
unsuspecting prospective unicyclists into getting something that will
break before it should. The seller, Dallis, is involved in treacherous
dealings on Trademe.co.nz that pretend to be cheaper than normal but
turn out to be the same price as his website products. You should be
ashamed of yourself for even considering to buy something from the
enemy! Support Unicycle.co.nz even if their KH seats leave something
to be desired and cost a bit more. Luckily no one I know in NZ is a
unicylist. *

Competition is a good thing. Have you tried the seat? If it is
inferior you get what you pay for, which is less than a KH seat. If you
haven't tried it then that's not a valid statement.

As for supporting the enemy- them harsh words. Do you know how much I
spent at Unicycle.com NZ this year? 😠

*Anyway, back to seats. I bet those seats are [censored] without even trying
one. I reckon keep supporting the Kris Holm brand so he can develop
them further. The idea of having no seam going down the front bit
might be a good idea though cos that is a place where it rubs on your
leg. *

The saddle that Kris had at the California Muni Weekend was narrower at
the front than the older KH saddles. That will cut down on the rubbing
and chafing.

I don't know if the new saddles with the Fusion cover (the removable KH
seat cover) have that narrower design yet or not. In any event, a
narrower design is in the works.

I don't know what Rowan is on, but at least he's back on RSU 😉

Anway, I think the new KH fusion cover certainly is narrower than the
old style KH seat. I had to some some shaving around the corner. I
think it's a much better shape because there is less material to get in
your way. On the other hand, the foam is still too thick. This is
easily fixed by cutting the foam in half. This is my dream seat, which
I will test out at the Day/Night Thriller 12hr race this weekend.
Stiff, light, racy and comfy.

I've tried reading through all this stuff but lost track ages ago : (
Taking into account price, what do you guys reckon is the best
all-round seat to buy (I live in NZ) if you can't be bothered cutting
it etc?
