Any idea as to the quality of the Ricambi-Weiss stuff? Seem to recall hearing mixed comments re. quality - anyone had first hand experience?


The Brancato stuff looks good, but any idea as to how much it might be??

Cheers,

Dave.




You will have to give them a call to find out exactly. If I remember correctly you are looking at £350 + finished. Like I said, very expensive, but looks like it might be a nice seat.

I bought a Ricambi-Weiss seat off e-bay a while back - quality wise it was OK I guess. I don't think the mould they use is great but after 1/2 an hour of rubbing down it was OK - it only cost me 30 squids so Im not complaining and now it's been sprayed it looks great.
Oh, one other thing - you'll need to knock up a bracket or support to sit the seat on the bike frame or all your weight will be on the four mounting holes - I used a bit of wood which seems to do the job ok.

'Nother vote for Ricambi. As has been said the quality isn't superb, but it's certainly not that bad and considering the price its pretty amazing...

I'm looking for a road seat Kev.

All things considered, I think I'll probably give the Ricambi one a go...

Although that won't be for a while now as I found out today that my debit card has been cloned and some thieving scum has completely emptied my bank account over the past couple of days, withdrawing cash in Central London!!!

What has really pi**ed me off is that I don't get paid holiday and it has taken months to save up the money to take some time off and they have had the lot!!!

No doubt it will be spent on bling or drugs.

Never say things can't get any worse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Does it have to be a Superlight style or would something else do?
