## Description

Townie Seat Black w/Lycra Insert

Review: Best saddle for upright position bikes - I've ridden a bike since I was 14. I have a little ADO Air folding bike that is great but kind of stiff when hitting bumps. I remembered the Electra Townie bike seat I had when I owned a Townie and installed one on the folding bike. What a difference, even from the good women's saddle I'd installed. The Townie seat is still the most comfortable seat I've ever had. Just rode it back and forth 20 miles to work today. So comfortable! And it's very water resistant! It does not have a cutout section in the middle, though. I don't need one, but some riders do. Also, the Cygolite under-the-seat taillight holder can be screwed onto the spring in the back of the saddle (instead of onto the saddle rails -- wasn't enough room) and is holding on just fine. If it's a problem, the clip on the back of the Cygolite Hotshot Pro taillight can be used to force the taillight onto the spring. I did that with my husband's Townie, and it worked just fine.
Review: Electra seat - This was a true Electra seat and not a low end copy. The cushion is notably better and the product is well made.
