Has anyone adapted one of the Swanson fiberglass or carbon shells to their Barcroft? These seats are available at Power-On cycling at reasonable price. Power-On also sells a foam that fits this seat. It appears that I maybe able to adapt the RANS seat angles to the bottom of the Swanson shell, but might have to fabricate 2 brackets to be attached to the seat back to adapt to the current RANS seat rear braces (2).

What are your experiences and thoughts?

This would give me an approximate 3# weight savings (i.e.: RANS seat = 5.15#, Fiberglass shell = 2 lbs + foam and rear bracket weights.

Thanks,

Barry
