Technical questions about pedals, forks, and seat posts.

Can pedals of most unicycles be removed with the wheel remaining
securely attached to the fork?

Have you tried dropping a spring into the seat post to absorb shocks?
(you would need to make sure that the seat and post remains together
somehow since it would not be clamped). I am not suggesting anyone do
that, it is for my information.

The seat post drops into the fork, right? I guess this is off topic,
but does anybody know if most bicycle seat posts fit snugly into most
bicycle front forks?

Thanks again.

I guess the fork shaft would have to be slit with a matching nail on
the seat post to keep the seat from turning on the fork, which could
also prevent the post from coming off. Again, I am not recommending
anything, just gathering information for my own personal use.

All pedals can easily be removed without remove anything else. Sorry but that's the only question I can really answer.

Thanks. I can ask about the seat/saddle post fitting into the fork in
a bicycle group, or eventually go and find out at some store. Have fun
with your new unicycle.
