Default RE: Most Uncomfortable Seat EVER!

The Mustang Standard Solo (about 15" wide) is a good option. I can go 10+ hours a day on it in total comfort. I'm 5'9" with a 30" inseam. Standing up, I have about 3" of clearance under my hind end. Also allows me to ride with my legs closer to the bike than the wider seats won't.

I went through the same thing when I converted my bike to a solo bike. Unfortunately, they don't let you try the seats out before you buy them. I have a Mustand solo on mine now and it looks good and is comfortable. There's better looking seats out there but it's always a balancing act...form-v-function.

More comfortable than the reach seat is the LePera Silhouette Upfront. It moves you forward (about 3 inches) and lower to the ground, which is what the reach seat is supposed to do. And is very very comfortable...
