Baron seat on my V20

[Andrew Wilson]

Been thinking about this for a while. I always liked how my Baron Elite C/F seat fit me. So I adapted it to the V20. Very similar to how most mount a Thor. I think I’m really going to like it. Sits you up enough so I really don’t need a head rest. I’ll tweak the adjustment a bit to give a bit of clearance but can still use it if I want.

Looks great Andrew!

Looks good.
Do you still own the Baron?
I was wondering what the speed difference might be between the Lowracer and V20 with the same rider onboard.

It’s stripped to the frame now. When I built up the V20 and was chasing KOMs. I set several KOMs that I had previously set on the Baron. My observations was the V20 was faster in tailwinds and up hills while the Baron was faster into the wind.

Very nice. Fun fact - the curvature of our adjustable CF seat was modeled after that seat (with some tweaks)

Very Cool !!! I do wish I could find a source for a new Ventisit pad for the seat. The original Optima pad is showing its age.

If you get hold of Bart at Ventist I imagine he can make one the exact size you need if he doesn't have some around that would work. He is awesome.

Thanks Robert

Bart was very helpful
Ventisit cushion is on order.
