FAQs

What makes this seat cover 'High Grip'?

The seat cover is made from a single piece of ultra-gripping material that provides exceptional traction, even in muddy or wet conditions, ensuring the rider stays securely positioned.

Can this cover fit seats with extra foam?

Yes, the cover is designed to fit perfectly with seats that have higher foams, up to approximately 2cm, thanks to its adaptive shape.

How durable is the material?

The material is very wear-proof, having been tested in World Championship conditions, and is resistant to abrasion even when riders use protective kneepads.

Is this seat cover specific to any particular bike model?

No, it is a universal seat cover designed to fit a wide range of motocross and MX bike seats.

How easy is it to install?

It is designed for easy assembly. The shapes are studied to fit the seat perfectly, simplifying the installation process.

What are the benefits of the one-piece construction?

The one-piece construction ensures consistent grip across the entire seating surface and contributes to the cover's overall durability and seamless appearance.

How should I clean the seat cover?

Clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners to maintain the grip and material integrity.

Troubleshooting

Seat cover does not fit tightly

Ensure the seat is properly prepped (clean and dry). Re-stretch the cover, paying attention to corners and edges. Make sure it is secured firmly with staples or fasteners.

Grip feels reduced after cleaning

Ensure only mild soap and water were used for cleaning. Residue from harsh cleaners can affect grip. Allow the cover to dry thoroughly. Lightly buffing with a clean, dry cloth may help restore grip.

Material appears to be stretching excessively

This can happen if the cover is not secured properly during installation. Re-install, ensuring an even stretch and secure fastening at all points around the seat base.
