Broke my comfy Townie Electra seat rail. LBS sells Townie seats (can order them in for $40cdn) but not parts like the rail or elastromer. Charity LBS sells used, bought 2 old springy for $5 each. Their rails are 14mm flat stock thats 3.5mm wide, requires specific rail clamp.
If you weigh a lot, do you do anything to your seat, maybe a certain placement of the rail clamp, I put mine all the way forward right where the bend is in the rail, so I sit more rearward. Probably a weak placement spot as I still tend seat and use the back of the seat.
Start stiffening up with rails by welding, is the only fix I see. Even cross bracing the rail and permanently welding the clamp.
