    Yeah to be honest, the DT isn't really the best offroader. It's good for light trials but serious offroad bikes tend to have a flat seat all together.

      @calum I’m a fan of the flat seats but it’s not really easy to achieve that look with the dt

            @glynn123 I don't have enough experience to comment, but that was my thoughts exactly. I thought you were supposed to straddle the bike, not sit on it.

                  @calum I've been off a bike since September, and wasn't riding very often since about the February before that, I'm no better haha
                  Used to do trials riding, still got the bike but the motivations left me πŸ˜‚

                        you could redo it and when you do put more foam in to make it higher at the front personally I think the seats fine I wouldn't change its just the DT's character

                          @terry-tz I thonk the best option is to force my self to sit back then the roam will wear to me and I won’t end up on the tank
