i got the ever so popular demolition f1...i was going to get that aitken seat but the comfort of the demos is so good i didnt know if it was gonna be as cumfy, thats they only thing i was looking for so yeh but i do like those aitkens good pattern on em...i think itll do a treat for sure
Yeah, I have the Fit seat, which comes stock on the flow. I have found the comfort fairly good since I got used to it, but in my opinion it feels extremely light (both the seat and the post).
I wouldn't mind having a wider seat that is easier to grip and maybe a bit more comfy, but I doubt I will change.
The macneil seats and posts look cool and comfy, and are apparently the lightest option in terms of seats (am I right??).

yes. ur right.
Get a shadow conspiracy or a cheap Velo seat! And slam it then angle it for enough room for your legs to get under! I dont think wieght is an issue when it comes to you dangleberries!

Definately Macneil.
I have the OG seat. Its pretty comfy.
Macneils awesome because you have no siderails, its easy as to adjust and they're tough.
You will have to buy a new seatpost but you wont regret it.

hey i wanted to get a macneil SL combo thingy, but i can see on the post its like curved up so you cant slam it, is there a way you can grind it down or sand it or something so you can run it very low

dont bother because it will weaken the post, just buy a slim from a different company.. like the odyssey junior or senior seat.
