Seat sought

Hi,
Seeking a seat for a Burley Limbo, or compatible Burley. The seat may be old, but, please, not ripped, torn, or the like. I just inherited a 'fixie' Burley from a friend. Initially, it was missing the front wheel, idler pulleys, cassette, chain, seat, BB, crank set, front derailleur and associated parts (cables, hand indexer). I'm now working on the chain, the seat, and the cassette. Gonna check ebay for a cassette, unless one of you has the following: 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26. Thanks for taking a peek. Jim near Baltimore

I may have a cassette and a Burley seat bottom, but not the whole seat. I'll check tomorrow.

the seat is very expensive though so you may not have gotten a great deal.

Bobkat had forgotten that he had already disposed of the seat.

1-866-248-5634 That is the Burley help number, toll-free according to their site. Get a tech, not a pure sales type, and explain your need. Spell out the whole rebuild and say you need a seat. If they can not sell you one directly for liability reasons they can probably get one to you through a Burley dealer at a bit higher price. Luck.
