I dont know about the Lepera but it looks a lot like a C & C Fastback seat. The C & C is about the same proice and is a great and comfortable seat.

I had a badlander on my bike and did not like it for comfort. The C & C has the same low profile but much more support and comfort. www.ccseats.com

It would be cheaper for you to have your badlander re-cut and custom fitted by Allen at mean city cycles. Check his forum out

Yeah the badlander worked for riding around town but when it came to trips it sucked. I went with a Corbin and would never go back to stock or anything else

I think I'm gonna go with MCC. That way I keep the look of the seat and pay less money. I haven't heard any negative stuff about his work either.
