Good News Bad News on Deliveries

Post by SECoda »

The good news is the NCY Variator and face plate arrived yesterday and am just waiting for the new OEM belt and pulley holder.

The bad news is Wetbike emailed and said the seat replacement would be delayed for yet another month so I cancelled it. Anyone know of a good comfortable seat in stock at anywhere else like in Thailand? I will try PowerPCX and Bikerbitz. I think part of the issue is that Wetbike got the seat from a supplier in Thailand.

Email webike and give four or five possible seats and ask which could be fastest to get. I changed a seat with them because of this also.

I know you put some miles on those bikes. Are they more comfortable? Do you have a link to them? TIA

Which seat did you order? I just purchased a replacement seat from them as well. It has red trim and is made by Arcadia, which is a Thai manufacturer. Hope they can get it for me in a timely fashion.

Sounds like the same one. They were talking mid November delivery at best. I am waiting to hear from them.

Hi everyone, this may be a little off topic, however it seems we all have tender bottoms when it comes to the PCX seats. I have recently bought a 2013 PCX in white. I love the bike but the seat kills me after 10 minutes. I found the solution in a Air Hawk seat cushion. It is air filled and fully adjustable. I can now do 200km rides and feel like I am sitting on a plush sofa with no pain. Perhaps a solution to some as it seems replacement seats are hard to get.

Cheers
Mike

Can you post a picture please? I peaked at some and they were as much as a new seat. Do you have picture on the bike?

Wetbike cancelled the order and asked me to provide a list of ones for them to check the stock. Given that most of these are manufactured in Thailand and how fast Bikerbitz shipped my previous orders and it arrived, I think I will go with them on the seat and just make sure it is in stock. I think I can get the same one I ordered from Wetbike that was backordered from BikerBitz.

I hope I attatched the photos right. This is so comfortable, and they have an awesome guarantee that I had to try it. My next trip will be from Nanaimo to Tofino, some 450km.

I got the Cruiser R, It has the cut out for our boy parts so there is no pressure. It is basically one of their top of the line models.

A pleasureful ride? o_O They seem expensive but may just be worth it?

I emailed Bikerbitz about what they have in-stock on seats.

Well I contacted PowerPCX, Bikerbitz, and Wetbike about seats. I asked them to send me a list of every seat they have that is ready to ship within a few days. Both PowerPCX and Bikerbitz identified every seat they have in stock. Wetbike seemed too large and busy and told me to pick some for them to check. As it turns out PowerPCX has the largest selection available for the PCX.
