Lowered seat height at all ???

Just wheeling my little baby out yesterday so that I could actually have enough room to stand her vertically and top the oil off correctly.....a funny thing happened....

Even though the seat was still off, I cocked a leg over (steady) and tried sitting on the frame rails, just for the hell of it...

LOL - Talk about MASS CENTRALISATION

OK, I'd probably get cramp after 5 mins and I have no idea what real effect it would have on the handling but it actually felt like quite a good position.

I must dig out the Corbin seat I bought previously and chuck it on (but it does not latch down quite right. It is about a 1/3 of an inch lower than the old standard seat.

I wonder....is a superlight single seat lower, does not really look it from those I've seen and it seems like there is a lot of wasted 'height' between the fram tubes before the base of the seat appears.

Anyone got an old spare original seat
