The last package came today, via UPS, all the way from the east coast.
Voila, heres the new muni.
I’d like to thank all the people who made this possible.

and most of all Darren Bedford, who has put-together and supplid most of the parts on this sick ride.
The seat had a perfect tilt now, and all presssure is applied to my plump buttocks. The brake fits perfectly in place. And I’m thinking of having “Muni Militia” cut into the brake booster.
I don’t like them. They get in the way of the frames I use. I go with the Profile spacers that look like regular washers. I order extras of the washers so I don’t have to use the UFO spacers.
The cost altogether is looking around $1000, however I’ve gotten some sweet deals on everything I’ve bought, so the actual retail value is… $1200, on the price is right.
My dad gets packages almost evry day via UPS or Fed Ex or USPS, so I know all of our mailmen.
Profile spacer ufo’s arehiy little peices of metal that go between the crankarms and the frame, and attatch around the hub. If you look at the cranks where they attatch you’ll see those little browninsh blackish rings around the hub, thats where they go. They look like little UFO’s when you put the two of them together. I dont really need them, but I want to pimp this muni to the full extent.
Jagur, you tryin to put together another muni? When is is for sale?
The mount ivolves tilting your hips a bit more upwards when mounting to get in the right spot, but it totally alieviates the saddle soreness problem.
I’m almost positive a brake booster is required, to prevent the brakes forom flexing. And since I bought a Magura and GB$ brake booster for 5bucks together, I dont really care.
I don’t think such an extreme angle is required to allieviate soreness. When I tried angles not as extreme but quite tilted I found them to be comfy for the buttocks, but uncomfortable due to the unnatural lifting of the front part. Only time I can think such a tilt might be justified is when you are going down a steep mountain and the unicycle is tilted so far forwards that it flattens the seat out.
