Says she will feel more secure in these than before, due to my aggressive driving style...moi?
She is not a very large lady though. 5' 1" tall, size 4. That being said she is not petite either. She's a fitness instructor.

I think we needs pics of all the female hips in this discussion to make sure we are comparing apples to apples.

Wow. Those are pretty awesome. Make my A8s look antiquated!!!
Is this sort of a reclining version of the CGT seat? I didn't see anything that reclined on their site. You must gots clout!

That thought crossed my mind also. Great looking seats, not sure about the quilting though. Would be interesting to see them in tan. Not that I can afford them...

Turns out they are in my town so hopefully I can check them out to test fit. BTW, here is their website with some of the seat details:
http://www.rotteccarbon.com/seat.php
There is a bit of discussion on other forums about certification and safety, and from their site they only certify for off-road use. Not sure about the US though or whether this is a problem.
It makes sense to work through Darin for purchases in the US (good guy and he brought it to the lists attention!), someone has to import them, but for us Canadians it might make sense to buy direct, and not go through the border twice...
Cheers,
Mike
