La Pera Maverick or C&C Sport Tour for Deluxe
My Fellow Riders,
I have finally reached to the conclusion that my Deluxe stock seat has to go. This is due to the seating position it puts me in, as well as, the low-back pain i get after almost every ride. I'm 6'2/210lb.
Going over the various threads and posts about this, i'm now to decide between:
1. La Pera's Maverick "Daddy Long Legs", and
2. C&C's Sport Tour.
My requirements are quite simple, i need a seat that pushes me backward (around 2") while still delivering comfortable seating experience during long rides.
Please help me by sharing your experience with and thoughts about these 2 seats.
Thank you,
-AM

Whil I don't have that particular C&C seat, I can tell you my C&C solo seat is very well made and very comfortable. I had them do some custom work on it and it came out great. They are a pleasure to work with.

I have the C&C solo as well. Love the seat. Have never had any discomfort and have ridden many 8 hour days. If you ride long days, I would highly recommend the detachable backrest. Its a life saver. Not sure if the model you are looking at has an available backrest or not. Talk to the guys at C&C and they can adjust the padding on any of their seats to move you back where you want to be. And don't forget to tell them you are a forum member so they will give you a discount

Never hear anything bad about C&C seats, never tried one myself though so I can't comment on them. I do have a Maverick on my sporty and it is a great seat. I can ride in that thing all day long and it gives great lower back support. It is a firm seat though so if you prefer a soft cushy seat it might not be for you.

Another option to consider is mean city cycles. I had no problem with the comfort of my stock deluxe seat, but the position had me feeling like i was on top of the tank. I sent it to mean city with instructions to push me back a few inches, while maintaining the stock height. They also give you the option to add memory foam (which I did) or gel inserts. I'll be receiving my seat tomorrow, so I'll be able to test out my new riding position. As for long distance comfort, I won't be able to comment until riding weather rolls around in a couple more months.

What concerned me is that C&C advised that their Solo & Tour seats allow you to ride a bit Lower than stocker, but not backward. I asked if they can do something about that, and I still await their response.
Should I get the response I'm looking for, I will pull the trigger right away.

You got some nice seat. I plan to get my seat in leather with red diamond stitching. Should go very well with my red deluxe.
