Well... the seat maker said he will make a tab for me on the back... but he is pissed off about it. "Anyone who told you velco and suction cups don't work is old school, and I am new school. Did you see any of the hundreds of seats on my website that had a tab? No, because suction cups and velco are new school and work fine. Having a tab is going to ruin the lines of my seat... but if that's what you want..."

Sigh.

Where the hell does the velcro attach to the bike? Does he usually glue a piece on the fender, or what? Who is this new school seatmaker?

I don't know how the velcro works, but I told himm I swap out my 2-up seat for a solo seat, so I can't have velcro. Then he said a suction cup would work. yeah it might, but I would rather have a bolt. You know?

I bet he goes around and steals his seats back since they can't be bolted down........ ;-)

Yeah, I was thinking that velcro or a suction cup would make it easy to steal.

Otherwise, Peg, stop hanging off in the corners like this and you should be ok!

Suction cups are OK for short distances for passengers. but hopefully not for long rides and definitely not for Rider !.
