Corbin vs The World

[DarkKnt]

Yet the esthetics are not. I think that the stock seat is so large it needs some texture/detailing to break up the flat surfaces. I tried a "Corbin Gunfighter" on my previous bike - a "Griso" - just for the look really. I was very disappointed in that it was less comfortable (as in friggin hard), changed the seating position, increased the effective seat height and made it akward to move around when riding aggressively. But it looked great! I can't say enough about the stock F6B seat for my size (5' 7", 160lbs) and riding style - 500-800kms a day solo, coffee dates two up. It simply works, and I can think of other things to spend $500 -$1000 on... but I wish it looked as good as it works.

I tried 3 aftermarket seats, and am satisfied with the stocker. I am one of the few also, and... I like the look.
