Mines a hardtail. I used scissor type springs on the seat as opposed to coils. I was told the scissor ones were a bit stiffer.Ive only test ridden it,(first trike/bike Ive ever ridden tho')but it feels fine ,even tho' I have no seat padding yet. I know Manky isnt a great fan of sprung seats,but I think theyre ok as long as you make the hinge with tight tolerances so that it cant move and not allow the seat to twist left/right when cornering.
