Comfort:  Standard "Hip Hinge" seat provides for independent adjustment of seat tilt and back recline.  Seat bottom rotates on the seat mount for tilt adjustment.  This allows you to set a posterior tilt to prevent you from sliding out without causing so much back recline that you strain your neck.  The four incremental adjustment positions allow a seat to back angle of 95-115 degrees in 5 degree increments to fine tune the back position as well.  A pair of adjustable struts provide support between the frame and the seat assy.

Quality:  We don't like wimpy components. Our dovetail seat rail and mating mount are examples of our attitude toward proper design.  No light duty parts which could slip and cause an accident. A lot more work on our parts, like the nice little corner radii on our machined parts, but the Longbikes philosophy dictates that extra effort!

No shortcuts:  Our Slipstreams come standard with front and rear disc brakes.  To integrate them into our design, we ensured our rear triangle, front fork and dropouts are sized and built correctly.  No shortcuts with off the shelf products forced to fit could even be considered for this bike.  Disc brakes put a tremendous load into the fork blade, so the change to disc was not a simple bracket on a V-Brake fork, but a totally new fork with oversized blades.  You wouldn't want to attempt a panic stop without this fork.  We want our customers to be proud to confidently ride in style on our well engineered Slipstream!!
