I get this asked a lot of me by novices etc. [after owning 45 bents in the last 15 years] here's how
i'd rank them, just in: 1. Organic Engines full mesh: nice lumbar, nice back height, and curled down
seat ends to facilitate getting my legs down 2. Turner. Milt's hard shell is the only hardshell i
didn't get recumbent but on, was fairly ventilated, I wish it was slightly wider in the shoulders,
but I compensated for this with "pipe foam" wrapped around the seat back and then the cover put over
that. 3. Bachetta, nicer RANS type seat, it beats out RANS due to the forward tip of the top back
rails, helps craddle the shoulders. 4. RANS, never had a issue with them if I tip them to 45
degrees, I love the simplicity of the sliding rail. 5. Burley. Nice, especially with 1" piece of
foam on top of the Corbin seat base with a RANS cover, no slipping. Seat back needs to be higher
though. CLOSE, but not quite there for me: 1. Rotator/Lightning, too bouncy, probably could have
been rectified though 2. Vision. No lumbar support, and the seat horn, while not uncomfortable, is
always noticeable in an area i'd rather not have notice while ride:rolleyes .
