Carbon seats for a Qx100

[joy]

Does anyone have any advice on a good lighter weight seat? I took my seat bottom off to modify it somewhat and was amazed at how much it weighs. I saw a picture with a Thor seat, but the Easy looks like it comes up too high in the front for me. Does anyone know if the Sport would fit? I would really like something more akin to my Vendetta seat. Has anyone else out there swapped seats? I am 5'7" and weigh about 130, so I don't need anything heavy duty. Suggestions? Thanks.

I put a Thorseat Easy on my Quest 559. The description is here:

It's a little out of date since I've continued to tweak things, but the seat is the same. I don't see why you couldn't go with the Sport. Another option would be a Volae carbon seat from the Hostel Shoppe. Both the Volae and Sport might be better if you want to recline to less than say 35 degrees or so. The Easy has worked well in the 33-40 deg range for me.
