Thanks, but you miss the point - I want a sprung saddle since this will be an upright position bike. I have a B17, and although it has worked on other bikes, it isn't to my taste on this one. The weight limit is less critical on unsprung saddles - You can merely tighten the saddle with its adjustment nut if it sags. If the springs fail, however, the saddle is shot.

For this reason, the B66, B67, and B33 are going off my list. Choices left are the 135 and the 190. The only "advantage" that I know of for the 190 is that it is wider. Since I'm not THAT heavy, I'm probably going with the B135.

Since they're throw-away cheap, I'll also try the Serfas Cruiser Gel, but I don't have any high hopes for it...

I'll post a photo of the bike once it's finished here so y'all can giggle! LOL

Thanks again - FH
