Mine got padded out at the front by Elsemade but the ridges from the inserts has created two pressure points inside my thighs. I wouldn't say its less comfortable than before but it's annoying, definitely not better. It does look good though.

my seats the same as Travis's and I have no problems at all, I recently put an original seat back on for a 100 mile ride and it just made me realise how good the elsemade seat is.

The quality and finish is great, he even recovered the grab strap to match the seat, although he did chuck it out initially when I had asked to retain it. I know everyone else has nothing but positive things to say, for me it took longer than expected and wasn't right when it came back, and communication was awkward the whole time. I am happy with the seat though, I'm sure the original would feel a bit worse just due to the material.

TZ. You could ask him to mod it to fix the problems... If you get a custom part made, you might always need a couple of iterations?
