Bonnie-Burton DS003 seat

Hi. This seat looks fantastic on the bike. I have found a couple short reviews of this seat, but I am interested in more. Anyone that has this can you weigh in on comfort and durability? Thanks!

This is the seat the OP is asking about, from Burtons bike bits. Suitable for Bonnies 2000-2008. They're working on a suitable one for later bikes:

Thats the exact seat I am looking for. I will contact them to see what shipping will be to the states. Price is about 268 U.S. dollars .

Installed mine last week... Pic attached : )

I received mine last week. Very pleased with the look and feel of the seat. I've put about 200 miles on it so far and can say that it's an improvement over stock with more cushion and slightly higher foam section. It's an excellent seat in my opinion and I don't regret the purchase for a second.

FYI, here is the quote I got to send to the US:

DS003 £170.00
P+P to USA approx £57.00
Total £227.00

That was a little too steep for me at the moment, i picked up a T100 gel seat on ebay for a reasonable price. I do imagine I will get this seat at some time though.
