Default Sheepskin (Rens) from Ikea for $40

Has anyone tried the sheepskin at Ikea called a Rens for riding? I hear good things about sheepskin on the saddle and this seems reasonable to me for longer riding.

I looked at dedicated sheepskins for bikes, kinda pricey. I got a sheepskin at some local store and cut it to fit for the electraglide seat. I hold it on the bike with bungees to the saddlebag mount bars. I do like the sheepskin for riding, it makes the seat more comfy no matter if it is hot/cold/wet/dry.

Hmmm, only $29.99 here in the states. Might have to swing by on the way home from work.

I have one of those on the bedroom floor. It's very useful for F@*king midgets on.

I bought one about ten years ago from Ikea, but at the time it was about $10. Still have and use it today. Its great to sit on after your bikes been sitting in the sun for a while on a hot day. No more swamp ***.,,

Default Cool Beans

Well if it cools off the beans on a hot day then it sounds like a keeper - for $40 CDN you can't go wrong.

Thanks all.
