I bought off them a couple of months ago.

Couldn't get through on the phone but got a reply to email after about 10 days!

Cheers,
Stu

I got seat pads for my 4 during the first lockdown. They do take quite a while to get on the phone, but if you persist they answer eventually.

Phil I have just purchased a simple waterproof cushion used on rowing seats, and a lumber support, but they haven’t been that effective on longer trips

I've given up with JKC now.
I am having some made locally by a seamstress. A bit more expensive, but it's better than no reply!

Try Reverie - they have a good selection of seat pads and answered my call yesterday, and you can order online. www.reverie.ltd.uk

I have tried to contact JKC a few times now in different ways. No response yet.
[mention]Fastlane[/mention] Please let us know how you find the reverie products.
Looking a their brochure, the FIA spacer fabric ones look about right.

I may just order those.

I have the Carbon Tillett seats in my Atom, which are very comfortable, but getting scratches on them eveytime I get in and out. So I have been looking at the options, including the Reverie pads, but haven't bought them. When I rang, they said they had sold quite a few sets to Atom owners recently.

I have my seats out and I think the best option may just be to get ppf applied instead by a local wrapping company.

Oh. That might be an idea! Thanks [mention]Fastlane[/mention]
Mine goes in for PPF tomorrow and I think I might be able to negotiate this.
Mine already suffers from helmet scratches on passenger side!

I do love the look of those but can't justify spending nearly £300 per seat...
