    I tried all the seats your wife tried and decided the widest YLG was the most comfortable. Thanks for your review. I plan to buy the trike next Spring and I will purchase another YLG for it. Happy riding!

    I'm 62 year old man 155 lbs.
    I also found the YLG seat to be the best for the Lectric XP Trike.
    By the way I installed a 52 tooth crankset and decreased the wheel diameter setting to 14.5 and now I can pedal the trike up to 19 mph.
    The speed has to be measured with GPS because the incorrect wheel diameter throws the display off.

      oh.. that's a very interesting mod to gain mph... aren't you able to reset the wheel diameter in the display to adjust?

    • @foodforestretirement2799
      @foodforestretirement2799 Год назад +1

      @jeffreymark6545 That's the setting I alter. If I set it to be accurate the top speed drops back down to 14 (13.6) on my trike. The loss of accuracy in the display doesn't bother me as the benefits of the bigger chainring and higher speed make the world of difference in this trike.

    I tried both the C9 and a Bikeroo and both bothered my skinny butt after a long ride. I took a chance on a memory foam saddle cover I got at Walmart and voila! No more pain or discomfort and now I can ride for a long time/distance with no pain. Make sure you get memory foam and not gel.

    What was your opinion on the wide YLG seat for yourself? Which do you prefer for yourself? Thanks.

    I'm torn between the YLG extra wide seat and the lectric brand saddle seat with the backrest for my lectric xp 3.0 that I just got last week. I'm not a fan of the comfort seat package they gave with the bike. Just like you said the comfort seat isn't all that great. Have you used the saddle seat with backrest and if you have why did you go with the YLG on your trike and not the saddle seat?

    • @jeffreymark6545
      @jeffreymark6545  2 месяца назад +1

      sorry, never tried the seat with the backrest. My wife likes the "wideness" of the YLG.

      I tried the Lectric seat with the backrest on my Lectric trike and I hated it. The backrest is not adjustable at all, so it constantly seems to push me forward. I am a 69 year old female, not particularly overweight, and the backrest does not allow me to sit comfortably on the seat it is attached to. Also, even though the seat is larger than Lectric's standard seat, the backrest is welded on, so it isn't easily removable. I think with the right saws you may be able to cut the posts and remove it, but not worth it for me. I have ordered the smaller YGL (with the tail light) to see if it works for me.

    Thanks for your review. It has been tough to find any comparison info between the 2 sizes of YLG seats. I was thinking about just getting both of them, seeing which one my wife likes better, and returning the other one. To clarify, the one your wife likes the best is the largest, highest-priced one, correct?

    • @jeffreymark6545
      @jeffreymark6545  11 месяцев назад +1

      Glad it helped. While I don't recall the pricing... she liked the largest one best and she's keeping it. After another 2 45 min rides, she is really happy with it overall and she says no discomfort.

      @@jeffreymark6545 I went ahead and ordered both. We’ll see which one ‘wins’. She has a local friend with a different brand of eTrike - whichever seat my wife doesn’t keep, maybe the friend will want.

      @jeffreymark6545 My wife liked the same one your wife liked. So it’s a keeper. Now to figure out if I’m returning the other one, or if my wife’s friend wants it.
