Comfy seat (Read 885 times)

bent_mike rbent member Posts: 3	Comfy seat Mar 15^th, 2017, 9:27pm I have just taken over an Advantage Cycles A3 style trike. It has a fixed mesh seat on a pipe frame. I can see the pipe getting tiring on long rides. Are there any suggestions on how to modify or add to this seat, to cushion the stiffness?

I need to work on the front and rear derailleurs which fight me on low and high gears. Otherwise it goes pretty well. Of course the motor gives out faster than I would like.
