Looking for any good or bad new on the Road Sofa.

 

I looked into this seat and decided against it. Hope some of these links help.

....... i put a RoadSofa on the RG a few years back & have been quite satisfied.
.... the newer model looks even comfy-er

 

I had a similar experience to the posts listed above ^^^ in jasnusc's post -- though I didn't take pictures. In addition to that bad experience, I didn't like the fake leather they used (though it may be different now) and just found their seat to be anything but interesting or comfortable. Frankly, I'm surprised they are still in the seat business with so many reputable and quality seat builders out there vying for our hard earned $$$.

JMHO...

 

Can you actually get one now? I looked and looked about 3 years ago and finally gave up. Everyone said not available even Saddleman. I thought it had been discontinued.

 

I have the Saddleman's Explorer seat which is the standard touring seat and I am not impressed. The gel doesn't do squat but the backrest sure was a good idea. Saddlemans customer service is about as bad as can possibly be. I had to explain to them that a RK Custom uses a different seat pan than any other RK and they kept insisting it didn't.

Find another seat.
