Best Carbon Fiber Seat Base?

[Nurse Ben]

Apparently Wallis Derail bases are not going to be available for the next few months, so what is the best alternative?

Does anyone else integrate a Thompson seat post into the base?

Is KH going to offer a CF base?

Bueller? Bueller? Bueller?

So, what are my options if I don't want to wait?

KH already has a CF base, it is up on unicycle dot com. Er...I mean, Roger from unicycle uk has made the mold of a KH style carbon fiber base, KH doesn't actually have his own carbon fiber base on the market.

You can either get a KH CF base or a Miyata CF base. The Miyata is slightly wider and would require a miyata seat post or a miyata rail adapter. Both are good, just depends on what set up you want.

With those CF bases you need to drill out the holes yourself and then square them out with a file for the bolts to fit. It takes a few hours, but in the end you can build up a nice custom seat to your liking.
