| | Posted : 10 Apr 2017 - 19:48 Post title : Thunderbird Storm seat | | | The standard single seat on my Storm is a right pain in the arse. ...literally. My coxyx (tail bone ) took a pounding from a 150 mile ride over the weekend. Has anyone changed the seat or had it re shaped to give a bit more comfort ?

I have done a 700 mile day (Strasbourg to Bridlington) and no issues - could have carried on but it got dark. I have done many 200-400 mile runs in a day. There are other seat available but not tested any of those. Others have had good results.

Never had an issue with comfort.
