If I had more control over this it would already be available. But when
you want to produce stuff for such a small market it isn’t always the
highest priority for the machine shop. They told me that they will
complete them by September 7th; if that happens then I hope they will be
available by the end of September at Unicycle.com. They had better be
because National Geographic Adventure Magazine is doing a review of it in
one of their fall issues and they are assuming that this thing is
actually for sale.

Is the cycle available yet? I hope to purchase one summer '02, so I shouldn’t stress it right now. Just to know if it will be in production one of these days will help me determine if I will buy it or not.
I don’t know if this sounds crazy, but I haven’t even been riding for a year (almost), and I am also looking for an indestructable cycle, the type that this signature cycle would offer.
Hey mt uni, i’ve been riding for almost 4 months and i’ve gone through 2
unicycles, I’ve wanted an indestructable one since i started! )—(x)

The Hunter is a good strong muni frame too. Don’t ignore it just becasue
Kris Holm doesn’t own one.

I don’t plan on ignoring Hunter. If I can’t get a hold of a K.H. uni by next summer (when I have full funds), then I will probably go the Hunter way, or contact a bmx company on doin a frame model for me, with possibly semi-sposorship.
Actually I am planing to get a hunter in the next couple of weeks, but I also want the Kris Holms modle.
I am, and have been planing starting a collection of unicycles, but it is a very slow process. I get a unicycle then I tear it up then I get a new one. I’ve always had very cheap unicycles but I’ve decided to get a couple of really good ones.
Ah. Cool. I was beginning to get the impression that some people were
riding all summer on a cheap Taiwanese uni waiting for the new KH muni to
be available rather than just buying a Hunter several months ago and being
happy. That would have been a dreadful waste of a summer.
Starting a collection of unicycles is a noble ambition. I want a KH muni
too. I already have a 26x3 Vortex, but I feel the need to get a 24x3
too. And something with a flat crown would be fun. And then I need a
Monty uni…

The KH20 and KH24 MUni’s will be available very soon, I promise! I know
I’ve said that a few times, but the frames are now finished- just waiting
for a couple of key components to come in.
By the way, a new mountain unicycling/trials video was also finished last
night! It is a Freeride Entertainment Production (the same company that
produced the bike videos New World Disorder and Fat Tire Fury). I’m stoked
to see this project done and it also will be available very soon.

As for the frames: Do they both take the same sized seat post and what
size posts fit? Also, will the frames come with a post clamp? If not what
clamp size fits?
The KH20 and KH24 MUni’s will be available very soon, I promise! I know
I’ve said that a few times, but the frames are now finished- just waiting
for a couple of key components to come in.
