  1. i am going to get a new seat for my trials uni. Should it be miyata or
    KH gel? Rail adapter or normal screw in seat post? CF rail post or
    alloy or CrMo? And what handle is good? I know its going to have a CF
    base for sure. Any suggestion is appreciated.

    I pulled a sick trey varial hickflip over an 8 set yesterday, but
    unfortunately it was supposed to be seat in to seat out. I've named it

  7. You don't want seat rails for trials. They'll snag your fingers.

    For trials you only need a minimal saddle. You won't be riding very
    far on it so padding isn't that important; in fact, the less padding
    the better your grip on the saddle will be. Get a CF base and put a
    thin layer of foam on it, mount it securely to a good seatpost (CrMo is
    heavy but very strong) and you're set.

    Bumpers are a good idea, they'll prolong the life of your CF base.
    Handles, well, that's what the seatbase is for... put a little vinyl
    tubing around the base so it doesn't hurt your fingers when you yank on
    it. Done!
