i have had universe a while and i have watched it a few to many times now i have seen the unicycling i tend to watch the back ground.this is the best bit of the vid like the bits when they are in skateparks to see the skaters watching and open mouthed is sooo funny!! i think they must of got a bit of hassle when they go in the parks as we sometimes do or me at school mainly " it's that unicycle boy why do you go in the park ect" so to see people who don't uni watching almost with out blinking is amazing!!
i have always wondered the phone calls to get the music on the videos asking a band to be on a extreme uni vid must of been very strange for a band to hear!
also almost all sites say how nasty the green miyata is as a seat colour but every one has it in that colour why!!!?!!?

I'm with you on that seat color. I can't believe that anyone ever produced a product with that color. Must have got a ton of that material at some amazing discount! So glad they make them in black now.

Personally, if I had bought a Uni with that color seat, as soon as they were available in other colors it would be gone.

Maybe to make them instantly recognizable at a distance, kinda like 'Kawasaki green'.

thinuniking · 2003-12-02, 08:05 PM

I love the green...it matches the yellow of my muni frame really well and it gives a plain old unicycle a bit of character.

Two main reasons why the green seats are unpopular:

1. Everyone else has one

2. It's a relatively ugly color, and doesn't go well with the colors of other things on the unicycle (or clothing)

In the past few years, Miyata has made their unicycles in red, blue, and green. Until recent years, Miyata has only sent us what they felt like, which seemed to always be the green ones. This makes me think they weren't that popular in Japan either.

James_Potter · 2003-12-02, 11:26 PM

Green is like the default color, or something, so they always come like that unless you request otherwise.

If I want to buy one of the black torker seats that are like the miyata's, do I have to buy a Torker? Because I just want the seat.

Hate to break it to but the only color that green matches is the interior of my garbage can. And there is no such thing as a plain old unicycle to the majority of people in the world. If you ride the plainest unicycle, you'll get the same looks as if you rode the strangest unicycle... ugly seat and all.

I dunno if I'd call it beautiful, because I think I can see skin off your foot all over that pedal..... Gross!
