jfree13 Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 Hey Everyone, From those of you that have ridden the MSX with its seat, how viable is it from a comfort/ ergonomic standpoint. It seems considerably shorter than the Monster making me think the seated option is something that is too awkward to actually enjoy, but let me know!

who_the Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 I'm on the shorter side (5-foot-6) and find the seat comfortable. Can easily ride for extended distances. But you're right, it's shorter than prior Gotway seats. Takes some practice to sit and stand while moving but totally doable. I do prefer to stand while riding in traffic for visibility purposes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy Valentin Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Had seat on msx and I can ride but I’m 5,11 220lbs and it isn’t so comfy. But i don’t have to worry about that no more cause it flew off at some point while riding twice second time wasn’t lucky enough to find it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddiemoy Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Takes some getting used to. Rideable, but definitely not as comfortable as taller seats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yourtoys7 Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Received my today, will try it couple of times and report on it. When I had Monster, that seat was comfy for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like all the feedback though, great to hear everyone’s input. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrelwood Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 I had’n ridden seated before, and the MSX seat is so low (I’m .193cm / 6’ 4”) that my legs won’t even bend properly so that I could learn riding seated. So not a viable form of travelling for me. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yourtoys7 Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 The seat is not as practical/ comfy as Monster for sure, on that wheel you can seat and relax Not so on MSX, but better than nothing for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
