I am rocking some Tillett CF B7s and love them! I got them based on Henry's recommendation.

Hi TR,

A related thread that's worth a read. https://www.ariel.club/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=16877

Personally, if my atom was mainly for track I'd go with a bag seat - nothing will fit you better and you could make a summer version for just race suit and a winter version for bulky jackets etc.

Just be aware that the Tillets sit higher than the normal seat and so if you have the shift light steering wheel, you may not be able to see much of the top of the dash including the speedo. or indicator tell tales. I had to buy a normal steering wheel as I like to know what speed I am doing between 30 and 130...

When I was doing research on this and putting together the budget for the Atom 4, I spec'ed the Tillets after these seemed to be the most popular choice for Atoms, the carbon fibre versions look cool too. I did also see them in Nomads. But after discovering the Atom 4 has a lower seat and now single not one piece as before, I will try the stock one for size.

If it is for the Atom 4. Try the new ones first. Massively better than the old ones in the 3 that's for sure. Lower, wider and much more comfortable than before.
