Sir Fallsalot Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 Got out today to try my new seat out ended up the same place as last weekend but with much more time to play with so rode most of the lanes in the area, spent over five hours riding and cannot believe how much difference there is between the stock seat and the seat concepts one, I got home with no monkey butt whatsoever, only regret is i should have gone for the standard height seat instead of the low one there's about 25mm difference between them, the low one is ultra comfy so the standard height one must be like an armchair. Almost every lane had water running along them took some photos of the best of them. The heavens opened in the afternoon but it didn't matter as i was on my way home and everything was soaking anyway. The low sun flickering through the trees and glaring off the water on the roads and trails made riding difficult in places as i couldn't see where i was going, Thoroughly enjoying the new bike even though its the same it rides different just seems easier to ride. Some wet photos of the day. looking down to where i am in the photo above And this is why i have such a heavy pipe guard gave it a hell of a donk on a rock, pipe would have needed blowing out it it wasn't fitted for sure This was last weekends outing but the same lane ridden today, made sure i missed the rock today 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember I'm not some unfit old codger, I've no bother with riding offroad... yes I've never been off road apart from mountain biking when I was younger and I wasn't bad at it so I have an idea of what I'm doing. As said if Bob or Fred would be willing to lend me one of their spares I'd gladly take them up on the offer. I unlike you don't shy away from water 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
