Calling all gen 1 Stradale owners. I am looking at buying a Strad at the moment. I fit the gen 2 seats but how tight are the carbon Gen 1 seats? I am 6 foot and 14.5 stone for refence and my M3 CSL seats were snug.

As a reference my Caterham tillets fitted beautifully but RS4 seats were just too tight. Its the width around the love handles I am bothered about.

Yep, they are a lovely seat and Zep and I have done 2 Euro trips of about 2k miles each. Very comfortable. I am 5'10" and 14 stone and absolutely no issue with fit.

Trousers...thats another matter depending upon how unkind I've been to my body of recent or not.

I've owned a CSL .... driven a Stradale and the CSL ones were tighter. You should be fine.

Been boxing 3 times a week for 5 years, happy to show you how ‘fit’ I am if you want.

Cycled 1000 miles in 10 days from London to South of France in 2016.
