Most comfortable seat

[dhk]

Brooks Brooks Brooks. If you're willing to trade weight for comfort and a saddle that will last a lifetime, you can't beat 'em. I have the Champion Flyer S -- not suitable for racing, but perfect for touring or other long-distance riding. They also make seats that are more targeted for speed and aggressive riding styles.

Sometimes something old really is the best thing --

Brooks have fans here too; mainly the ultra-distance randonneur guys. Got a B17 about 30 years ago on my Raleigh Gran Sport, but I never found it comfortable.

I suspect it got wet before it really broke in, or perhaps I messed up the ritual with the leather oil. It's a hammock now, even with the tension screw all the way out.

Maybe have to give one another try on my next tour-sport bike project.

San marco rolls, no question. altho not for you if youre weight obsessed, i used to do 300 miles a week on one of these back when i trained a lot and i NEVER had a sore ****....
