Be prepared to sit back further from your stock seat unless you really express to them you want a forward seating position, and then it takes two or three returns for them to get it right. The reach to the ground will increase so if your just flat footing ask them to do a nose job on the front. They do have a great used market value if you don't like them. Just not a fan of Corbin or there customer service.
Edit::
Lash, check out this thread, best seat I've ever owned.

I went with the Lamm seat, nice seat, poor customer service. Pretty much built the seat he wanted to build after I sent him a photo of exactly what I wanted - which included a strap. Never sent a strap as promise, never contacted me after numerous attempt via phone and email.
The actual seat is built rather well but is only about a 5-6 hour seat for me. The Russell Day Long (on another bike) is an all day seat and probably a good two day seat if pushed that hard.
If anyone wants a used Laam seat, black, a wee bit higher than stock, black threads I could be talked into selling.It is better than stock, but at some point I think I'll move on to a different seat.

My experience was Seth was the opposite, he really took the time to listen, required picture of me sitting on the bike and I had to chalk out my exact seat position. We had several phone conversation during the build and he sent picture before he shipped it back to make sure I was happy with the design.
