Seat project

I have idea about making more comfortable seat for my DT. Well, I always wanted to make some bit longer trips with bike, but I don't have enough money to buy some bike for that and I have only my DT, which is uncomfortable as hell. Once I ride for 100 km in one ride and I regret doing that. Next few days I wasn't able to sit properly on a chair. So I would like to try making totally new seat for my bike from scratch. I hope that I will succeed in my project.

Here is pic of my idea of seat.

If you have any suggestions, ideas or useful advice that could help me in my project, feel free to comment.

 

P.S. I hope that my English isn't too bad :)

See I thought about a Seat project. But my idea was a little simpler

Have you ever heard of memory foam? It's the stuff NASA developed for their shuttles.

I was thinking about gutting the insides of the seat and replacing it with memory foam. But It won't be easy to get the shape correct. That's why I didn't bother. I've only ever done thag sort of mileage once. But wasn't in that much pain.

What you want is a gel insert. Just by adding more foam doesnt always mean it will add more comfort.
