My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style. – Maya Angelou
I bought a beaded pad and made my first ride with it today. I have a Mustang seat which is very good but I am impressed with the beads. After 425,000 plus miles, stock seats with gel inserts, Ultimate seats, Mustang seats, Air Hawks, etc. etc., one short ride so far and I am impressed with the beads. Just my opinion.

Go to Walmart, and just purchase a car seat cushion (under $10.00) and place on top of your stock seat...........
Your wallet will thank you!
Your spinster muscle, will thank you
But your bank will hate you!
Just place on top of seat and ride away very happy..................

always take wallet out before riding, makes riding long ways better.
I'm so use to having it there that for-instance when i go hunting in the woods i leave my wallet at the camp.....And every now and then i'll pat my wallet'less pocket panic for a split second thinking i lost the wallet.... Its a knee jerk reaction..In the winter i will put it in the inside wallet pocket of my jacket....But i still get that knee jerk reaction...

Many years ago I started putting my wallet in my right front pocket when riding. It became habit and now it is there all the time. Never have to worry about pick-pockets..... Jim

I've been doing the same thing for years. I don't know why something so small (My wallet is about as small as they get) could get so painful after a few hours in the saddle. Mine started about 2012 or so when I started doing multi-day rides. You find answers in a hurry after a few days.

Thought I was going to need a new hip a few years back. The DR ask to see my wallet, to much plastic, problem solved
Yeah, mine used to be fat with money. Plastic money. Dropped all but 2 cards and now the leather and 2 licenses I have take up all the room. Still don't have any money in the sucker.
The only reason some people are still alive is it's illegal to shoot them.

I tried the tall boy seat but after about an hour I couldn’t wait to get off of it. Then I bought a HD Hammock seat. It’s a little pricey but it is well worth every penny.
Isn't this more about the shape of the seat rather than the material. The L tilted shape always helps your back bone to be comfortable and doesn't hurt like that. As far the outer layer is a thing sheep leather is the best option.
