I had a LePera BareBones with gel, sold it, and now have a C&C Solo without gel. IMO the C&C w/o gel is more comfortable than the LePera w/ gel.

Have a LePera BareBone solo W/gel & loving it. Just getting back of a 3 Hr. ride & ut's fine... What's comfortable for one, someone else might hate...depends on your but's shape I gess !!! Anyways, for what it costs, I think it's worth the extra $............

Default I must admit...

I must admit that Barebones & Silhouette are the thinniest seats Leperra offers... For sure you wont have the comfort a larger solo seat offers. Personnaly I switch my Barebone for a Mustang widw vintage solo for long weekend ries.

I have a Bare Bones, with gel. Some one stated it was like riding on a pine board. They are wrong. Its like riding on a oak board! Still I like cause it looks bitch'n!

I hava a Barebones w/gel and an Mammoth solo w/o gel.The gel seat definetly conducts more heat than the seat w/o gel.The gel seat roasts my nuts on a hot day
