Put one of these buckle stops on right after the adjuster buckle, and once you set the fit, it stays put.

The Revo that James/Stormscrambler sold me for Sara had extra buckles on it and I found it a LOT more comfortable to not have to mess with the position several times a day.

I'm not understanding this. Sorry.
Could you provide a pic of the entire seat and where this buckle is relative to it?

Jimmy, you can get them at REI. Mike, this is a "buckle" that is use to make a non slip loop in webbing. Basiclly, you put it on the tag end of the adjustment strap of your seat. It provides an extra stop that the original buckle runs into when it starts to slip. I found myself always pulling on the tag ends several times a day to readjust the angle of the seat because the constant pressure of leaning back into the seat while peddling slowly caused it to slip. Everyone I've talked to has experienced the same thing. This "backup buckle" provides a stop to run into. It may take a couple tries to get it where you want, but once you set it, it's like you riveted it.

This is good information. but I like to adjust my seat often enough, my back doesn't get tired sitting in one position. How easy is it to readjust your seat after this stop is on?

Got it. It works the same as a knot but easier to fine tune. Thanks for the clarification Jonesz.

Seaweed. That's the beauty of it. You can also adjust it easily if you want. Just loosen and slide it to where you want.
