Wunderlich my arse . . . .
When I bought my S it came with a Wunderlich seat on it which initially seemd very very good. However ( you knew that was coming didn't you ) having now done some proper long rides, It's bloody awful.
Has anyone else got one of these, and if so how do you find it ? and if you had the same numb arse issue what solved it ?
I can't decide if it's that the foam is too soft, the seat's too narrow at the front or something else entirely ??
Answers on a postcard to the usual address please....

Julian has a standard seat that he may sell, I don't recall seeeing any damage on it.
Had you not posted that the Wunderstuff was uncomfortable you could probably have sold it for a nice sum... ebay then

Well Wonder had you been sober when you read my post you would have noticed that I said it came with the bike when I bought it
It's really comfy if you're on it for less than 2-3 hours, but then ( for me anyway ) it starts to get a bit numbing. Very well made a looks very nice, but there's something not right. I've never had a numb arse from any of my previous bikes and 14 hours in the saddle wasn't uncommon on them.
I'll mabey try some mods of the foam.
Mike a very generous offer but I'd hate to swap to something else and then find it's no better.
I think it might be partly due to the fact that I have long legs and a shorter body so I'm quite far forward in the saddle, instead of seated back in the broad section, mabey I should try and get some bar back type things....though I don't get a sore back or wrists...

Not too keen on the standard seat then Chris
Have you still got it, are you interested in punting it ??? What sort of height / inside leg ( easy tiger !!!! ) are you ? Looking for similarities that might give a common link for comfortable seats ....

I'll have a rummage in the loft first to see if i've got 2 or 3,i've got one thats mint which Gus has and A.N.other which is marked, had one modified with the intension of haveing another done,but the first proved to be that good i haven't bothered again,although to give a balanced view Gus tried it and didn't like it.
