aener Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 Why don't race BMX go seatless? Same shape as a Phython, with BMX geo. Save WAY more than the 100g or however much this seat does.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CurtisRider Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 Why don't race BMX go seatless? Same shape as a Phython, with BMX geo. Save WAY more than the 100g or however much this seat does..Because it looks terrible, although so does this seat...I think removing components means a bike starts to lose its identity, bmx has a 'look' about it, and losing things like a seat means its not really a bmx as most people know it anymore. I know the same can be applied to trials, but bmxers have a different attitude towards thier bikes it seems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hendrix Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 I have a carbon mini seat.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CurtisRider Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 On a second look...wheres the carbon bit? Or is it just the post? The actual seat itself looks to be a translucent plastic... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the same can be applied to trials, but bmxers have a different attitude towards thier bikes it seems.Yes but BMXer's are on the weight weenie bandwagon, especially olympic eligiable ones.It just seems like a pointless thing to have on a race BMX, when do you need to use it?

forteh Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 Why don't race BMX go seatless? Same shape as a Phython, with BMX geo. Save WAY more than the 100g or however much this seat does..The seat is often used to control the bike in mid air Jumping a bike with no seat and massive standover (a trials bike) feels really alien to me.
