My Corbin looks good but I was disapointed in some quality details and didn't get the "Butt Range" increase I'd hoped for. Give it an 8.0 score.

I've had Corbins on 3 different bikes and I found they all increased my range and were much more comfortable than stock. I think it's the increased width and the dished seat. But, keep in mind the following:

I've been told they have a break in period so maybe that's why the new one was so uncomfortable. As always, that's just my experience and YMMV.

One other consideration when using the Corbin is Your handlebars.My riding mate loaned me his Corbin gunfighter & ladyand was very uncomfortable with my after market bar arrangement, and lowered frame. Your height ,weight , arm reach, wind screen, and many morevariables to consider when choosing seats . What works for one may not for another.....
