Congratulations on your riding successes and I wish you a quick recovery. I was admiring your Hillborne. The black frameset looks fantastic with all the black accessories. I was particularly curious about the saddle. What is it? How does it do reducing the road bumps when riding in the upright position? The reason I ask is that I noticed that I felt a little more vibration in my back when riding in an upright position when my weight was distributed mostly on the seat than when it is distributed across seat and bars with the Albastache. If I ever go back to my Albatross bars, I was thinking I might change seats from the B17. Any thoughts or suggestions?
Good luck with your recovery.
