Hi everyone , I’ve jointed the 900e club , the bike is just awesome ... only issue I have is the seat so uncomfortable
Is any other one I could fit ? Also how does Cush core go Im thinking of converting to it ?

There are millions of saddles out there; everyone is different, so no-one can give you "correct" advice on this one. The best recommendation is to do a sit bone test and then try some saddles out that are designed for your sit bone width.

Hi rippa,
Fitted Cush core a couple of weeks ago, mainly to eliminate pinch flats. I don’t know if it’s my imagination but the tires seem to have a better ride/feel to them. Time will tell.
Don’t think they help with comfort.
I use my old WTB Pure pro saddle, much more comfortable than the brick that comes with the bike.
Enjoy the bike.

I'm a big fan of the Fabric Radius Scoop Elite or the Fabric Shallow Scoop Elite, excellent seats and very comfy. I run either of these on all my bikes. The seat that came on my 900e was rock hard and too flat from side to side across the rear making it dig in. That's what I like about the Fabric seats, the radius tends to contour the inside of the leg better.

Charge Spoon for me - got them on four bikes - best saddle I've found since the much loved 1998 WTB SST.

I thought the same about the stocky seat when I first got the bike, (160 900E) but a couple of weeks in and it's not a problem anymore, did a 23km ride in just over an hour and didn't even feel it at all.
