Test drove two tubes.....which one to pick?

[cool][#0000ff]I did not start using chair inserts until after I had "graduated" from "butt sling" seats...such as I had on my Kennebec, just before buying my first SFC. I suspect they might help. [/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]Although I did not use a chair, I did use a piece of 4" thick high density foam both as a cushion and to give me a small amount of extra altitude. Of course it soaked up water and had to be drained, wrung out and properly dried after each trip. But, it definitely made for a more comfy ride. [/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]Caddis has not had a website or USA presence for several years. But, Caddis tubes are still being made "offshore" and sold to mass marketers for the price minded newbie tubers. They no longer have the standards of quality that used to make them a good buy. And, they do not sell replacement items...like bladders. However there are websites that DO sell replacement bladders for several tubes.[/#0000ff]
