CM Seats has anyone fitted one ?

[alO49]

I'm looking into changing my 03TA seat to Cm Seat.
I would like to sit higher as I have long legs plus have the front end lifting up to stop me sliding forward.
Has anyone fitted one or had one of these or had these changes made ? the cost is over £200 ! so I need to get it right before ordering.
They also talk about a Gelastic Pad are the any good ?
Any info would be a great help. Al

There has been a few of us who have gone with a cm seat with mixed reviews..

CM seat

Personally i did not have a good expereince and the seat lasted only a 3000 miles before needing repadding which he did for free, 3500miles later it needed it again and he was gunna charge me an other 230£ ... i do over 15000 miles per year you can do the maths.... I ended up redoing it my self .. and although not perfect... it is well worth the time / lack of money...

Firstly, apologies, not the answer to your question!

However as an alternative. I bought a seat from a member of this forum who had had it modded by the addition of some additional padding to fill the cut out, with the original cover re-stretched over, primarily for comfort but as an added benefit it also raises the seat height.

Having used this for a while I tried the old seat again, it mad the bike feel quite cramped.
