Hi Mike,
The seat was rebuilt of parts from two different seats and covered with
one of the nice German-made repro covers bought off eBay. The base is
from the '69's original seat, the foam from one off eBay. Think the seat
off eBay may have been from a late Eldo - they're a bit differently
shaped (more pronounced ridge between rider and passenger sections and
maybe a bit flatter also). In any case it's quite firm, but comfy. On
the MD/DC Spring Ride today, I didn't get the usual 150 mile numbbutt.
Towards the end of our 200 mile route, I only felt a bit "burn"
starting. The trip to the National will be the test though. Cheers,

| Charley, where did you get Sophia's seat? I've seen seats like that before, but this is the first time I really like the look. For some reason it looks good on her. (I have a friend named Sophia: she just defended her doctoral dissertation in religion and is beginning a master's in computer modeling. She's tough but pretty, just like your Sophia.) |
