Default Pain in a$$??

Heading out next week for a 7-10 day ride. Do I use my corbin solo seat for looks or the ugly sundowner 2up seat for comfort?

As a seasoned hard *** long haul rider I will tell you comfort first. Nothing will spoil a trip worse than a sore tailbone, back, and shoulders.

Because it's your comfort we are talking about I think you should use the Corbin just to look cool and suffer in silence. However, if we were talking about me, I am not cool and never will be so I'd be using the Sundowner

+1 for the Sundowner seat. I love mine but agree it's like sitting on a love seat. The Danny Gray Butt Crack design (solo) is my first choice around town, but on the long haul, you wanna avoid unnecessary discomfort.
