Title: What's a good seat & post combo?
Post by: MartyC on April 21, 2011, 03:28 PM

Thinking of upgrading my seat/post combo on my Felt park/street bike.  It currently has the stock seat so I want to replace it with something a little more up to date, it's a graphite black, gold and chrome build.

Cheers

Marty

not knowing an awful lot about this but having a keen eye when out and about i would say the cool thing to have is a pivotal seatpost thats shorter than your thumb and a plastic semi translluscent seat that resembles what your a555hole would call a razorblade!!

On a sensible note, my lad has a love very slightly paddded blank seat, its light and lime green, no good to sit on, but if you land wrong and end up hitting it, it offers up a little more protection than the placcy ones

heres a link to a search on ebay, may not be your thing though

I guess its all about finding one you like the look of Marty.
