That seat does not look comfortable. For $3500 they could have used a nice cushion seat.

Looks like a Brooks saddle. That's top-of-the-line stuff and very comfortable. Plus they are going for the old board-tracker look, so a cushy comfort saddle would ruin the look.

Brooks saddles are AOK on my butt.

I like that quite a bit, even if I would be unable to stand riding it for a really long distance with my ruined back.

Nothing wrong with that saddle. I do find it funny they call it a cruiser, when it's clearly a board track racer inspired bike.

Personally, I'd want to at least be able to raise the seat if I was pedaling at all. I got long ass legs. Likely a longer seat post can be used. They always show a bike with the seat as low as possible in the sales pic.

LOTS to like about that springer fork. Clearly a big upgrade on the cheap ones you see on ebay.

Like all the pretty bikes, don't ever park it unless your pack of huge dogs is watching it.

Looks cool 8) , but would be too painful for me to ride.

The "V Shaped Battery" should be helpful. I wonder it's a flat head overhead valve battery?
