Ringer2000 Report post Posted 20 hours ago I'm looking for some good advice regarding shaping a leather ground seat, mainly what would be the difference in shape you should try to get for different body shapes of riders, for example a short legged heavy set person opposed to a long legged rider with not much natural padding over the seat bones, I know from personal experience that what one person finds comfortable I may not.

It helps get you answers if you do a little research to find the various forums that are applicable to your question. People don't know what a ground seat is unless they have worked with saddles or have an interest in someday building a saddle. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
