I have yet to see one in person. They look very nice online, but $150!!! Are they really that much nicer than any of the other seat covers out there? How durable are they? How comfortable are they? Any pics? Thanks!!

So nobody has one of these!?!?!:huh Really!?!?:confused: Is that just because they are to expensive or because there is something better out there? I'd really like to get some opinions on it as well as some suggestions as to what might be better. Thanks!

i think $150 for ANY seat cover is BS, i dont know what they are thinking asking that.

I have one on my c-dale.

VERY thick and durable so far....Looks awesome
It does tend to soak up water though...

They are comfy and the quality is MUCH better than my Ceet and my old Alba ones..

the only real downside is the price, it was around $160 shipped and took a few weeks to get here...

here are a few pics....

It does look super comfy! How 'grippy' is it? Some covers are almost like rubber and seem like they may create to much grip. Would you buy another one? BTW, those bikes look AWESOME!! Nice job!!

it doesn't really grip at all. It makes it very easy to slide around on which i like!...thanks for the comment..

Sorry but if you race aren`t seat covers supose to grip?
Comfort ones are for trail riders.

I read on a magazine today that a seat that grips is supose to help with arm pump cause you not gonna be sliding on the seat, so your arms gonna be fixed on the bars, don`t know if I was clear on this but it makes sense

Try a graves seat cover. He will do any design you want with a gripper. They are killer. gravesmotorsports.com. Ask for Jeff

It is all about the riders prefrence. Some like grip, some don't. Personally i like my "non-gripper" quadtech, better than my ceet gripper...
