GTS Custom-Seats

A philosophy catches on !

As close as life philosophy and riding a motorcycle is connected inseparably to each
other, the more the opinion about how a motorcycle has to look is divided.
 

It was a lot of hard work, that motorcycles nowadays do not have to look like in the 50’s after having passed a technical control.

In the beginning of the 70’s the North-Hessian pioneering spirit brought the first technical controlled chopper on the streets and with it a lot of movement in the scene. Even is those days the handmade seats of Georg and Harald Thiele, which are individually fitted on every kind of motorcycle, were esteemed.

 
 

Following from the constantly growing demand for perfectly fitting and
handmade
chopper-seats was the setting up of GTS – Gebrüder Thiele Seats.

 

From the initial production of prototypes developed a range of products beginning with the standard  seat forms to special features for every kind of motorcycles.

 

By now there is no other seller on the entire market, who is offering such a big range
of  products and so many different design variations.

 

Since 1977 GTS does not only create alternatives for the seats installed ex works,
but
is also present with its know-how concerning the realisation of new motorcycle rough drafts.

 

Despite of the demand of offering a favourable price-performance ratio to thecustomers in the times of mass production, GTS relies upon handmade articles.

Besides the craft manufacture the quality is depending on the used material. That is why we only use especially chosen leather or very hardwearing imitation leather for the seat covers.

 
On a coated galvanized sheet steel, which is equipped with rubber to protect the edges, a special foam is fastened. This special material gives the seat its final shape and guarantees a great comfort even with very flat seats e.g. cobra-seat. After having covered the basis form with leather or imitation leather, the bottom of the seat is covered with carpet to protect the motorcycle lacquer.
 

The nearness of the employees to the product and the fact that every step of the production is controlled are a guarantor for a production on a high level.
The nearness to the customers is obvious for the team of GTS – it is not regarded as  a worth mentioning feature because is belongs to our normal service.In personal conversations we can share experiences with our customers and maybe create some new ideas.

 
 
Every seat is delivered with the necessary fastening material.

If there are questions about the installation, the team of GTS is available for you at any time.
