KH seat and Hunter frame

Unicycles and Equipment
1

Hi All,
My girlfriend has a Hunter frame with an old Miata seat (I think). I bought her a new KH seat, but the bolt holes on the old post don’t work for the KH seat, and it is too small of an area to drill new ones.

What post on unicycle.com can I get that fits inside the Hunter frame? I can’t quite figure out what diameter I need, and which post will work with the KH seat.

Thanks all!
Corbin

My Hunter MUni has this configuration with a KH seat:

Hope this helps!

cool, thanks! Unfortunatly, my girlfriend is so short, that the post has to be really short. The extra height that the rail gives would make it too tall for her.

There doesn’t seem to be any traditional seatposts that are 26.8 in diameter.

Would it be possible for me to get this:

which is 22.2, and get an adapter to make it work with the 26.8? If so…where could I get such an adapter?

These shims may work:

But, I don’t know for sure.

Any thoughts are appreciated. Thank you all!

this is universal seat post but not for kh seat under kh seat there is no place for big plate like this. you need seat post made for kh seat or torker dx no matter or set of the wilder bracket or something simmilar and bike seat post…

best regards

or you can make the plate for kh at local welder and weldet it to the original seat post in plase of the old plate that will be cut off…

no more ideas :slight_smile:

I just cut my seat post when I got the MUni, was a little too high even for me.

Corbin, one of the world’s best shim makers lives just down the road from you. Rick Hunter can make any shim you need pretty easily.

He has sometimes used 25.4 seatpost stock (like on my Hunter36) and sometimes 26.8. 26.8 used to be a standard mountain bike seatpost size but has fallen out of favor in recent years. For your case, I’d recommend a shim and a normal 22.2 unicycle seatpost.
