The best seat for 1100/1150?

[Tsiklonaut]

You guys confuse me

Went to local saddle-maker and had the stock seat refomed and reshaped and recovered for £61.50

2cm higher, 3-4cm wider and a smallish 1-2 cm radius recess (i.e like Sargent and Corbin have) cut for more arse-shaped stuff and "climb" in the rear for more support area and so on.

Now it looks like an ugly American BMW fat arse seater.

But after 20 miles it felt nice, being 2cm higher and in higher position my knees were in much more neutral angle and arse felt nice too with muchos more support area. Will let you know after it's "seated in", if it'll end up a comfty or a horrific seat. If the latter, I'll buy Corbin or Sargent from US then (cheaper). Lets see if the experiment risk with £62 was worth it... or not...

Cheers, Margus

Has anyone tried the one piece seat from Touratech?..looks the biz me finks

I've got one - they look great but not a big improvement comfortwise but is taller and looks the bizz

I preferred it recovered to get rid of that awful Touratwat Logo - and while the cover was off a layer of memory foam put on to improve the comfort.


(ok so it wasn't me - the guy I bought it from had all that done)
