I looked at it. It looks nice, but is about $290 more than I can spend right now. I started modifying my existing seat yesterday. It's my first attempt at any kind of seat manufacture or upholstery, so it ought to be interesting. So far, I'm having fun at it. Taking bunches of pictures, in case it turns out well. Maybe someone will want a step by step.
If it looks like Peewee Herman's bike seat when I'm done, the pictures will mysteriously vanish due to a Windows system error. It's been comedic, to say the least. Being a carpenter, I had visions of building a wooden pan. In the tech section on that idea it should say "don't."
At the moment I have a huge foam contraption sitting on the bike ready for carving, rasping, shaping of some sort. It isn't pretty, YET, but it feels pretty nice to sit on.
On the other hand, maybe someone here knows something about shaping foam that can stop me before I get in trouble. Any experts out there?
