right now i still have the seat. just waiting for jval to get back to me with pickup arrangements.
the hammock is very comfortable, dont get me wrong. i just have lower back issues and im fairly tall, so having tall profile in the saddle is paramount for me. after listening to all the comments around the forums from guys saying how high it raises you in the saddle, i jumped in. well, it does raise you up a bit, maybe 3/4" to 1" , but not the "several" inches like some guys were claiming.
took it on one really long weekend ride, last weekend, no discomfort on the rear end whatsoever and i rode all day for 3 days straight. the bucket on the hammock comforms to your rear end as you sit on it, like its designed to do, and you kinda suck into it. to put it into perspective....im that guy that would rather sit on a wood chair with a pad than the couch!
