Certainly it's my opinion. Whose else would it be?
In answer to your question: many years ago I ordered a saddle from them.
The did not follow the directions I gave them, even thought I sent it back
twice at over $20 a pop (it was a lot of $$ for me back then) -- and I don't
like to waste what I have. The pan wasn't a good fit--because they use
their own instead of the stock pan. Finally I gave up and had a local guy
redo it. His version wasn't very good either, but it was better than what
Corbin sold me. The only good thing about it was the back rest, which I
never used.
So for me: it was crap. I would NEVER recommend them based on my
experiences with them. I have continued to hear bad things about them as
the years have passed.
