ST2 seat

[Suhail]

This may have been discussed before! I'm a new ST2 owner and I'm in need of a more comfortable seat. I'm a big guy (270 lbs) with a bony rear end I assume there are better, more comfortable seats out there for someone with my girth?
Thanks in advance.

I'm at 203 lbs.with a Brooks B-17 Imperial ( with a slit in the middle) and a thudbuster LT suspension seatpost on an St2, and very pleased with the ride. I know what you mean about the OEM seat. If yours slides down, just put some graphite paste on the seat post. Congrats on the St2.

I recommend Brooks B17 as well. Great saddle.

If I were you, I would go to http://bicyclesportshop.com/
Apparently, they are a specialized dealer.
Everyone's sit bones are different and some of these shops can measure your sit bones and fit you with a matching saddle.
Comfort is a personal thing. I feel a good Brooke saddle + Ergon grips + BodyFloat = LOTS of comfort.

I agree - SQLabs. Check out Radsports - they will send you and kit to measure your sitbones to get the right width. I have the 610 Sport and LOVE IT!

You don't need the kit just use a cardboard to measure your sitbone width
There are some youtubes about this

Yep - that is what I did.
