And here's the base, with the new prototype pump attachment. This is
set up for right hand, but can be set up on the other side too. And it
is a modular attachment - a regular schraeder valve can be done.
Scott Wallis IS the next level.

You could have one of these on the other side of the underside of the
seat.

The design of the prototype pump reminded me of one 😄

It looks like the kind of pump on a blood pressure monitor. But as a
prototype, I'll let Scott elaborate on this great innovation.

Ehm, it looks like a pretty sweet saddle, however it's a pretty bulky
saddle, while I'd prefer a low profile one for touring, preference
probably. Why have you chosen for an airsaddle if I may ask? Does it
shift when you sit on it? That's a complaint I heard about air saddles
(I've never ridden one myself), also, does the gutter actually help?
I'd like to hear some more on this saddle!

That blood pressure cuff bulb is a neat idea. It's nice to see that
idea being given a try. Jack Wiley has picture of a saddle with two or
three bulbs attached to allow on the fly adjustment of air pressure in
an air saddle that had two or three separate bladders inside so the
pressure in different areas of the saddle could be tweaked. The
picture is in The Unicycle Book.

Nice! I want one! But I'd have to have the horn on the other side so i
wouldn't honk when I hop.

You don't realize how good Scot's stuff really is till you ride on
something else.

Oh comedy! I'll have to talk Harper about putting red lipstick on
unisk8r's new saddle to see what kind of imprint pattern it makes on
unisk8r's cycling shorts. That would be some great entertainment
during one of our Seattle area rides, especially if unisk8r doesn't
notice. 🙂

Don't you dare, JC! The only one wearing lipstick better be Sissy Man
himself!

MuniAddict - there is no lift handle. This is going on a V-frame, with
road bars.
The seat end of the bar system is used to mount. No need to grip the
seat.

Dustin - This ain't your father's airseat. It's light and tight. No
squishiness or possibility of the air bladders moving around. It's a
JEWEL!

Brendan - part of the cost was for R&D. If Scott decides to do
production versions, I'm sure he'll post more info on his web site:

But if it makes a lip imprint on your rear it would be soooo funny. 😄

Thanks for the comments, questions, and comedy. I was happy to make a
unique saddle for Pete’s unique Red Menace geared unicycle.

Pete’s saddle uses my newest air-adjustable cushion experiment,
and I have been using this style on my Coker for a while. It is a
molded foam cushion with cavities in each side into which I mold
urethane rubber air bladders. These badders are connected internally by
a very small crossover tube that restricts the airflow, and in turn
dampens any side-to-side bounce that would be caused by air transfer
between the chambers. This is a different approach than my other molded
air cushions, and I continue to develop both styles. This style
provides a softer surface while still having the firm support and
pressure equalization under the sit-bones as my other style of cushion.

The cover is anchored to the seat base down the centerline at the
front, rear, and center to define the relief slot and further stabilize
the cushion.

The adjust-on-the-fly pump assembly is something I have been using for
quite a while on my personal Coker for seat testing, but have not
offered it to customers yet. I actually surprised Pete with this one.
It is very useful for quickly dialing in the ideal pressure while you
ride, compared to start-and-stop trial and error adjusting. It is also
sometimes helpful to change the air pressure during a long ride just to
give a different contact pattern on the tender tissues.

Pete paid the regular seat price stated on my web site, plus a charge
for the custom leather. I wanted him to try out the pump prototype. I
have not set a price for the pump system yet.

The complete seat assembly as shown with pump weighs 1.75 lb, which is
somewhat lighter than a plain plastic-base foam saddle.

I hope the weather allows you guys to ride soon. I will be looking
formard to the butt-lip photos.

Scott
