KH seat comparison

compare the thick KH seat to the freeride and the street gel saddle. i
will be riding street. and i like comfort of course

kh freeride- fat but really comfortable
kh street-very skinny but decent seat if you aren't sitting on it that
much
kh gel 06- the happy medium between the 07 seats. comfortable but
small enough to grip SIF easily
thick kh (non gel)- not comfortable and absolutely sucks for SIF

it's like running across the highway at rush hour. Dangerous, stupid,

Extremely disagree with tihs one.

I use the old fat KH saddle on my coker, and love it. Very comfy, and
ive done 50mile rides on it with no soreness or numbing at all. I also
dont mind doing SIF on it when it was in my Nimbus Frame.

It is really all about preference. Unfortunatly no two people's nethers
are the same, therefore everyone will experience saddles differently.

As you can see Jerrick has no problems with the basic KH. I personaly
hate the basic KH for riding, although I don't mind it that much for
SIF. I also don't like the new street seat for SIF or riding, but
others love it for both.

Personaly my favourite seat I have ever ridden is the KH/Bedford
gel/dual density seat.

I think it was a limited production test run to make new gel seats. It
is about half as thick as the KH standard seat was back then, it is
dual layered, and it fits in my hand like a glove. I can ride this seat
for as long as I want without any problems and I can treat it like any
thin seat out there.

The only problem is that because the foam is somewhat squishy the
fabric in the back actualy sticks out more than the bumper and it has
been devoloping some really big holes in the Fusion cover.

The best way to find the right seat, unfortunatly is to ride lots of
different seats. There is no perfect seat for everyone just what works
for you.
