Why is your seat better than others, or what makes it different from others on the market?
“The Veteran is a favorite of people who still want a seat. If you want a “couch” seat this will satisfy your needs but its still only marginally longer and wider than most seats. Aaron Ross and Adam Banton favorite. The Tear Away version is a fun way to get two seats in one, and give your seat a second life when it starts to wear out. If you can wait that long…” - Jim Bauer, Odyssey BMX

Why is your seat better than others, or what makes it different from others on the market?
“First off, since we have introduced our Senior 2 size and shape, it has become one of the most popular in BMX. The Railed Version comes with traditional padding and cover, such as Mexican Blanket/Kevlar and Perforated White, Black,Red or Brown Vinyl.

On our Pivotal saddles, rather than sharing a base and shape with everyone else, we have redesigned and improved our base in a way that we feel improves the design tremendously. Our base is designed to be used with no padding as a raw plastic seat, which comes in White, Black, Clear, Red and Brown as stock colors. Coming soon are the five Chameleon colors that change color in UV light. They start out as semi translucent white, and turn one of five colors in the sunlight. It sounds weird, but it is a sight. Pretty wild science in there. That same plastic base is used for the padded saddles that come in Mexican blanket/Kevlar or Perforated White, Black, Red and Brown Vinyl. If you ever decide to strip the padding off your seat, the finished raw plastic seat is left behind (two seats in one basically).” - Jim Bauer, Odyssey BMX
