    Wells Seat

    Just had the seat done by G A Wells it now costs £25, but i must say that is the best £25 that i have spent on the bike. After 50 miles before i was looking to get off and have a walk about, and even then the previous 20 miles was very uncomfortable. Now i can go at least 120 miles and only at the end do i get mild discomfort. It really transforms the bike.

    Also bloody nice guys, a really excellent service

    Do they do mods? I want mine filling out at the front, as it too low. Anyone had it done? How much did it cost? Does it look OK?. How long did it take?

    Questions Questions...

    Yup, they do mods. Lowering, raising, whatever within the confines of the original seat cover of course.

    Mine had been lowered by a previous owner who looked like they'd chopped the foam out with a stick, it was really rough and showed through the cover. Wells sorted that out along with the standard softening/filling out. Nice.

    Thinking about getting the seat on my Vara made harder and narrower...think my ass misses the @!
