   (Since you have to buy both the seat and the rear rack, I copied the same review for both items.)

   I bought the Two Person Seat Cushion – Flat Seat Black, 50CM (and the correct rear rack for it). It’s the shorter variant. I’m not using it for two people, but for more seating area and extra comfort during my long rides.

   I’ve only had a chance to ride for 30 minutes when I installed the seat. (A series of unfortunate events has prevented me from going for a ride in recent weeks.) From what I’ve experienced, it’s pretty comfy. I’m 6’0″ tall, and being able to sit further back feels much more natural. Also, since the seat is thicker, I feel higher and I don’t feel the potholes as much. It takes a bit of getting used to, but after a few minutes I was well adjusted.

   There was a slight problem during the delivery… the optional tailbox rack addition was missing. After advising EScootParts, they couldn’t find the piece. It’s seems to be discontinued. They have also removed it from their website. I was issued a partial refund, the difference in price without the tailbox rack option. All this was resolved quickly enough.

   The reason I removed a star is not because of the service, but rather because the design has 2 flaws.

   The first is that the new seat is not tight-fitted to the locking mechanism holding it in place. There is a bit of looseness. Not the end of the world, but noticeable.

   The second (more important to me) is that, while the standard rear rack has a thick cylindrical contour allowing to easily grab the bike by the rear to move it around, this new rack does not. It does have what could be described as grips, but it’s thin flat metal with sharp(-ish) edges. I will be adding some padding where I most grab it to avoid little cuts on my hand.

   Other than that, I’m happy with the experience and the purchase, and I will be buying from EScootParts again!

   While I expected the seat to be more comfortable, I was even more surprised by how much of a better seating position it gives me. I will however recommend going for the longer one (60cm) if you are tall, as I am 1m83cm and I got the short one and I find I am a little pushed forward, and my son who usually seats behind didn’t like where his legs fell on the passenger footrests with the seat.

   Very comfortable. 50cm Camel leaves room for back rest. Slightly small back seat but no issue if passenger is petite.
