Does the padding ever get caught on the front of seat when sitting back in saddle?

Now I feel weird because it occasionally happens to me and all the other people said it never happens to them...But yes, this does happen sometimes...it's annoying but I think it has more to do with rider error than a problem with the shorts.

Never. The shorts are very snug. I wear them in spin class. I'm also accident prone so if something was able to get caught on something it would happen to me. Now that it's in my head it may happen today. I'll let you know.

No sorry. Not that I know of. There really is no way of stopping it from doing so. I am having that problem all of my seats.

Yes. There is a metal piece underneath the seat that the harness tightening strap's path is intended to go OVER. However, I have found that it almost always manages to find its way UNDER the small piece. I always reach under my son's seat, use my finger to pull down that bit of strap, and pull the tightening strap with the other hand.

Not always.Between the Thudbuster and Brooks B17 saddle I can't use my seat mounted bag anymore.The tongue where the bag latches on is now too short.Maybe it's because of the saddle, and not the Thudbuster, but clearly the answer is: "not always".

Hi Mike, it has rubber bumps on the buttom and it's suppose to hold the seat in place and it does a great job. I have 4 in black color and it's extremely durable and very comfy. I bought mine two years ago and use them every single day at dinner, and it looks brand new. I get tons of compliments on it. Definitely worth the buy!!!! Good luck.

yes, but it snaps back on just as easy. I think it usually happens when the seat is slammed down too many times. It is only a minor inconvenience in my opinion.

I'm NOT thin and have plenty of padding!!! Lol but the seat is very comfortable. There is not much of a hump to go in between your legs so it positions you a little differently than other saddle seats. It is adjustable so you can tilt your pelvis forward or back toward your spine for your comfort. I'm a hairstylist and I used another saddle seat for quite sometime and this seat is way more comfortable. Btw, my husband purchased this for me and I'm answering on his amazon account (Sharon)

Not really saying yes or no. Mine has not done that. I've had them on more than off since June. I wonder if something in the fabric of your seat is reacting with the seat cover water-proofing.

I haven't had that issue. Because the straps are independant, you can tighten the one at the top of the knee more, so should not slip.

The only place that holds it from slipping is the ledge at the bottom. When I am sitting, I have never had an issue of it slipping off. However, if you decide to carry it without it being in the flat position, it can slide off; especially, forward since it is angled with the widest part in the back.

The material is not slick and you will not slip on the seat cover. The back side of the seat cover has a rubber material that will not slip on the seats.

This has happened to me before, and I usually find that adjusting the seat completely upright and making sure the canopy is all the way back does the trick. Hope that helps!

There is a little bit of padding at the bottom where it rests on your back, but no additional padding to protect the seat from damage. My seat came out looking great though and I don't think the additional padding is necessary.

As long as the seat post has a standard clamp to attach to the rails under the seat, yes. If the seatpost uses a clamp that is adjustable with a hex key, it may become loose as you ride.

The 2 answers below are correct. Mine has padding on the inside bottom though some may not.

If you are the "Captain" (in the front saddle), you will not have any problem. Adjust the seat posts height, and enjoy your tandem.

I haven't had this problem. The plastic that wraps around the seat post is similar or identical to those straps you see on good bike racks that sit on the trunks of cars. If you are concerned about wear on the seat post, you could easily put in a thin gasket or even a bit of cloth. But when I've tightened the strap snugly, I've had no problems. This is a very simple, effective, cool device.
