The kevlar one doesn't seem to bad, but i've seen those rip aswell in the same place, right at the nose. The regular material is almost tacky and sticks a lil'. None of my seats have ever ripped and theres no way a junior can rip. How come you want rid of the jimmy levan?

I've never acctually seen the nose rip, I've just seen it come unstapled with isn't too hard to fix, and I've ripped plently of seats, and even my levan has a small rip. I could see how your bare ass would stick with the regular senior, but not with jeans on, unless you had mad swass going on, hahaha.... I'm not going to get rid of my levan, probly just put it on my beater bike, and it's cause it dosen't work with the colour scheme I want to paint my bike.

Haha bare ass, doesn't sound like fun. 2 of my friends had seniors, both of them ripped and needless to say, they both have different seats not. What colour scheme are you going for?

we'll I wouldnt mind having one anyway, if it ripped id just recover it. So premium?? Anyway, I'm not 100% sure on the colour scheme yet, but I posted a photo shop of my main idea awhile back. It's lime green and fades into bright orange on the frame with orange wheels.

That is a nice bike. Really nice color, and normally I don't like light blue.

Why are you checking out how loose your grandma is?
Also, if you look he still has too many links in the chain to properly tension it. It needs to be shortened.
