[tmaxrobbo]

Hi anyone used one ? Any difference ? more comfortable , roomy supportive ? Cheers

No one ? I've bought one so will let you know how it is

I have a Shad and quite like it, although it takes away form the sportiness a little.

My used TMax had one on it and, unliked previous Corbins on other bikes, I quite like this one. Compares favorably with a Mayer saddle. More comfort longer.

Fitted it , easy to do and its nice and gives a bit more knee room , supportive and you sit in the bike a bit more . I'm happy with it

[tmaxrobbo]

And its getting better with use , initially hard its now sculpting to my backside shape , much more knee room as well

But not Waterproof !!!! In the recent storms it has soaked up tons of water and the seat wont stay up !! A summer seat then

Blimey, that's not very impressive, for what was probably not particularly cheap! Isn't it worth a complaint?

When I saw it was Leather, I did wonder if it was designed for residents of Arizona or desert regions. I assumed they would have waterproofed it - it is exposed to the elements for Chrissake!

So the Corbin is off for the winter which is a shame , drying it out in the airing cupboard , it weighs a ton !!! Back with the standard seat , which feels high and cramped now !! Roll on the summer!!
