Rich Phillips solo spring seat advice for 48
#13
I love this seat and was shocked by how comfortable it is. I'm tall and skinny, 6' 155 lbs and it fits my butt like a glove. I don't feel like I am sitting taller at all. I think the gel padding is worth the extra $100.
I've only had the seat for a month but so far no buyer's remorse.

Their site is http://bikersaddles.com/ but good luck finding anything. They just redid the site and it looks like 90% of their old content is now gone. I'll try to do some more digging.

Jenks, I like the look of your seat sitting super low and tight like that but I also really love the look of the springs so I'm keeping it as-is. Photos of my setup are a little deceiving because it looks much different when I'm actually sitting on it. The seat just sort of disappears and becomes very low profile, with just
The springs showing. It's a look I like quite a bit. What I would really love to do is lose the rear fender but then my girlfriend would have no place
to sit, and unlike a lot of people, I actually like riding with my "old lady."

My seat is 10"x13" seat without the gel pad. I really considered getting the gel but another $100 was a little to much for me. I went with them because for the price I like the quality I got. I only drive about 35 miles each way to work and no pain yet. The most I have done is about 2hrs straight and I am ready to stretch my legs and back afterwards, but I like the look more than I want a comfortable seat.
