Default C&C Squareback ordered! (Thanks Dave)

After mulling between LePera and C&C, I decided to go with a C&C Squareback seat for my Big Blue Pearl. I went the Mercedes/smooth vinyl combo with cobalt blue top stitch as it is the closest to Big Blue Pearl.

After reading all of the reviews of C&C it seems like you can't go wrong with them and the price is way more then fair. Dave was awesome in helping my pick everything. I was thinking of doing the Fastback, but the wifey sliding off of the back and complaining...or even worse....scratching the paint help with picking the Squareback.

Does anyone have pics of the squareback on their bike?

You made the RIGHT choice!

C&C makes the best seats and at a price point that beats everyone else prices.
I have both a solo and a sports touring saddle w/ back rest and both of them are keepers.
They really change the look of your bagger and people will also always ask about the saddle or saying like, "who makes that seat"?

Ride Safe,

YELLOWBIRD

I have a lepera, Danny gray, and a cc. My two brothers came down to ride and we all agreed the cc felt the best on the butt. All look great, but in our opinion cc is the way to go.

I went with Mercedes leather, not the vinyl.

This was for a few reasons:
1. Leather is cooler in the summer, as it breathes a little better.
2. I wanted the leather to get its own patina overtime and miles. My SG solo seat has the most miles, and it's wearing really nicely.

The vinyl is really great though for retaining that new condition. It's not going to stretch or distress. In fact, the Ostrich material, though limited in use in my seats, is vinyl.

C&C Seats quality is awesome. It puts anything I've seen from HD to shame.
