[thinuniking]

i have had universe a while and i have watched it a few to many times
now i have seen the unicycling i tend to watch the back ground.this is
the best bits of the vid like the bits when they are in skateparks to
see the skaters staring and open mouthed is sooo funny!! i think they
must of got a bit of hassle when they go in the parks so to see people
who don't uni watching almost with out blinking is amazing!!
i have always wondered the phone calls to get the music on the videos
asking a band to be on a extreme uni vid must of been very strange for a
band to hear!
also almost all sites say how nasty the green miyata is as a seat
colour but every one has it in that colour why!!!?!!?

I'm with you on that seat color. I can't believe that anyone ever
produced a product with that color. Must have got a ton of that
material at some amazing discount! So glad they make them in black now.


Personally, if I had bought a Uni with that color seat, as soon as they
were available in other colors it would be gone.

I love the green...it matches the yellow of my muni frame really well
and it gives a plain old unicycle a bit of character.

Two main reasons why the green seats are unpopular:

1. Everyone else has one

2. It's a relatively ugly color, and doesn't go well with the colors of
other things on the unicycle (or clothing)

In the past few years, Miyata has made their unicycles in red, blue, and
green. Until recent years, Miyata has only sent us what they felt like,
which seemed to always be the green ones. This makes me think they
weren't that popular in Japan either.

Green is like the default color, or something, so they always come like
that unless you request otherwise.

If I want to buy one of the black torker seats that are like the
miyata's, do I have to buy a Torker? Because I just want the seat.

Hate to break it to but the only color that green matches is the
interior of my garbage can. And there is no such thing as a plain old
unicycle to the majority of people in the world. If you ride the
plainest unicycle, you'll get the same looks as if you rode the
strangest unicycle... ugly seat and all.:D

I dunno if I'd call it beautiful, because I think I can see skin off

Don't get me wrong, I love the color of your Uni. But Dude, That seat
isn't helping... not even a little. Puke Green, White, and and Bright
Yellow just don't look that good together. If you think it does, I am
signing you up for that show "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy" In case
you haven't heard of the show, five gay guys come to your house and set
you straight on all things that have to do with fashion. ie... Which
colors look good together.

JJuggle, I am a little suprised you like that green color, I thought
red was more your color.;)

I don't think they list it online, but I asked unicycle.com last time I
called them: YES, you can buy the Torker black seat, if I'm remembering
correctly it's about $30US.

I like *Miyata green*. It is not my favourite shade of green but I would
still choose it over red or blue. I think it would suit my unicycle
(which is black) and some of my clothing (which is also black). It just
so happens that I am ordering a black bumper not *Miyata green*, but
it's not because it's ugly or everyone else has one. If everyone else
had a black bumper I would still get one. I think your MUni looks good
Andrew. Yellow is not my favourite colour, but I think it compliments
*Miyata green* well.
