Uniseats are back! Question is, would you consider using one nowadays or do you think they've had their day?

i think these are perfect for the little guys but not sure about larger riders

Probably right Phil. I'm trying to help the guy at Uni find a UK distributor at the moment.

I'm liking this as my next saddle.

Not alot of seat for about £60 though Mike, quite like the look of the VERDE seats alot cheaper aswell.

Very true Gary (it's light and strong though

).

Got any pics/links to the Verde seats?

Sorry Mike had abit of a senior moment the seats I was thinking about are ECLAT, branch of wethepeople, even do a moulded 1 piece seat aswell.
No idea on prices or stockists but probably any wethepeople dealer should be able to get them.

Bike is stripped down for painting, only managed to primer it Saturday morning, was going to build it and then strip it again but thought fook it, I'll stay in and do some DIY. Then Sunday morning i thought fook it again and went rOm.
Pulled off a couple of new tricks for me PEG STALLS and TYRE TAPS, very happy man

Cheers Gary. Some of those seats look quite nice (very similar concept to the Tioga Spyder saddle) and different colours too.

Really liking the Eclat products...

wonder how long it'll be before the new school whip ferrits get these slammed into their bikes!

can't say as though it appeals to me myself, i'll be going for unibolt system on my new race setup

Hated them in the 80s still hate them now!

Bob_Acid · « **Reply #18 on:** June 04, 2008, 05:09 AM »

They looked good with MAX covers

But you might have better luck getting a new single out of Elvis as you would buying a MAX cover... $:-\$

I'm sure Owen 'Son of Big Daddy' Baxter has a new uni on his race bike.

Not so sure about them myslef, I did have a turbo in the the early 80's, then I went on to a Skyway hot seat, that's probably why I run a oddy jnr. now.
