Talking Saddle

Anyone have an extra saddle that you'd like to sell? I was recently given an inexpensive 26" Sun uni. I've upgraded many of the components as well as the tire (Maxxis Xenith 26"x1.50") with extra parts I had sitting around. However, I intend to use it for asphalt trail riding and it could seriously use a better/more comfortable saddle. I'm looking for one in decent condition with a traditional style seatpost attachment and integrated front handle. Something like my Nimbus gel or KH freeride would be great. However, even a thin Koxx-One saddle would be better than the factory saddle from Sun.

No one needs a few extra bucks for a saddle you aren't using? I swapped the Maxxis Xenith with a Bontrager Earl Gum-Bi for the extra air volume, but seriously need a better saddle.

I think you would have better luck by just purchasing one on the internet.

Yeah, I'm beginning to think you're right. Unicycle.com is sold out of the Nimbus Club Saddles right now, but if some of my Craigs List ads sell I may go for a Nimbus Gel or a KH Freeride. I just hate to buy new unless I have to.

If you don't mind something that's got ample old school KH style padding you may consider the Coker saddle for $28. It's pretty much identical to the Nimbus Hi-Top, or the old KH Saddles before the Fusion Freeride (FF).

I have an old KH saddle that I pulled the cover off of, and put a 1" groove down the middle like the FF has, and it's my go to MUni saddle. I had a FF on it, and found that the old saddle with the groove down the middle was more comfy on the trail. My FF is happily perched atop my Nightrider.
