post a pic of it, someone will ID it.

as for the seat, the later performers came with padded seats, so you'd probably be able to get a padded gt performer one.

Duuuuuddddeeeee.... !

This should be in the widows section

BMX seats are not for sitting on, if you want to double check though - go down to your local skatepark and try and sit on someones saddle there.

If your looking for something comforatble for the mature gentlemen to get to work etc, youll be fighting a losing battle with a bmx.

But if your are desperate, you might be interested to know that the most common new school seat, "velo slim saddle" rebranded as wethpeople or shadow conspiracy etc, is actually very very comfortable. And also looks hugely better than chunky midschool jobs
