Do you have any suggestions of such a company**********
I will let you know how it works. I switched my seat from my road bike to my commuter (CC with rack) So we shall see how that goes tomorrow.

My seat is flat... I am experimenting tomorrow with it tilted slightly down in the nose. It felt good on a cruise around the neighborhood as best as I could tell.

[MENTION=134410]rumrunn6[/MENTION] I rode with a guy who has said the same thing about his Brooks saddle. That is on the list for the TOURING/ commuting bike if I can convince the Mrs. I need it. Trying to decide if I should sell the road bike to start the fund for the touring/ commuting bike. I like the Kona Sutra, Surly dLHT, or the Salsa Vaya2
