can someone tell me what seat this is in the pic below? Also, where is a good place online to get a custom leather seat?

Thanks!

Its called a hairpin saddle I believe. I don't know where you can get them though.

You can get a really nasty smelling one here..... http://www.hiwheel.com/

I bought one and it smells like road kill! Nice saddle for the price although the workmanship leaves a little to be desired. If you order one don't be suprised if it is scratched and scraped up when you get it.

Later,

Hey thats my "Beer Bike".
And the seat is an old hairpin seat I bought on Ebay a couple of years ago. It had a name stamped into the leather on the sides but it is too old and worn to read, I think the name starts with an S but anymore than that difficult to see. It has no name plate or holes for a name plate on the back like the repops. Its is very old and the leather is cracked, worn and dirty just like I like it. And it doesn't have a bad smell like the new repops. It is comfortable and has nice spring action, and looks great ( I think ) with a bent seat post. Dangerous Dan

Thanks for the info Dan.


I saw a nice looking custom leather seat that someone had bought new, but now I can find the thread......I think the company name started with a B?
