Ok, evision made Saturday Dec-3-2016:

The Seat shownon the bike was Stolen Last Night.. I Purchased a Brand New Seat today " La Rosa " with all the mounting hardwareincluded.

I still have the Seat Springs that should work with the new Seat.. Photos will be added of the New Seat with the tag still on it.. I hope

this wouldn't become a Deal Breaker being I replaced the Seat with a Better Bran New one to show good faith. Everything else it the

same, xcept the New Seat is Black. I couldn't get a White one in such a hurry..
