I think James (potter) did it once, he said it was comfortable but only
for a while till the wrap ran out.

Mike

P.S it doesnt seem like that bad of an idea because if they popped you
could bring some more on long trip...

Sounds like a good idea. I've been using an innertube wrapped around
the seat on my Sun, the trick is to hold it together under the seat
with tie wire.

Anyhow, let us know how your bubble wrap works out.

I'm definitely looking to get a more comfortable seat.

Hmmm. Last year the tube in my old airseat failed twice in as many days,
and I didn't have any more small tubes and didn't feel like patching,
so I stuffed the entire thing with bubble wrap as an experiment. It was
the kind with the small bubbles. I think the bubbles kind of deflated,
rather than popped, as I rode. The bubble wrap would gradually lose
volume until I had to add more, and as time went by the seat became
more and more full of hard, flattened bubble wrap and less and less
comfortable. It was OK as a stopgap but didn't work very well for very
long. I had one of those Sem Deluxe saddles with the rubber cover, easy
to do stuff like that with, but hard to keep in place properly. I ride
a Velo now.

I think that bubble wrap on the outside of the seat would fail pretty
quickly.
