I'm sure this has been discussed many times, but my searches turned up no discussion about the sport seat. Just general happiness with Russel users.
I like to go on nice touring rides, managed a 2600 and a 2800 mile adventure this summer. But still the majority of my riding is sub 2 hour rides to one place or another. Touring the stock seat starts to bug me at about 400 miles, usually the inside lower thighs. I use the Yoda riding style breaking at the hips and leaning forward .
I live in a rural area, so I rarely have to deal with traffic lights, stop and go traffic. I occasionally take my bike into the city, but it's rare.
Although I'm getting slower on the pegs, I still like to move around on the bike when cornering, being locked into a seat with limited movement, or restricted movement would not appeal to me, I don't think.
I'm struggling to decide between an standard Russel daylong or their sport seat, I've pretty much decided a Russell is my brand of choice, but I would love to hear from anyone who has the sport seat, especially their comfort over longer rides and their freedom for movement. If you think I should get the regular daylong seat I'd like to hear your reasons for that too.
If I've missed a discussion about the Sport seat please tell me to forth and multiply, while giving me the link, I know the same old tired subjects can be a bit frustrating if you've been on a board for a while.
