In Response To: S&G: installing seat back (Doug)

: I have a Pygmy Coho and would like to change from the 'stock' seat back to an
: adjustable back band. Does anyone have any experience with this-like what
: band and how to install it?

: Thanks

I found a backband much more comfortable than the stock pygmy backband. I made mine myself that is very similar to the backbands that can be purchased. I attached a peice of thin bungee cord around the strap that supports the backband and the existing pad eye that I used for the pygmy backband. It helps a lot for leaning back and rolling.
