Message from Alice at Berkeley Sourcing Group: 
"The bike seat factory tested the gasket sample, it is a little hard to get the box be closed with this sample.  So they suggests the gasket need to be more soft. We called the factory to test the hardness again, and let them do the same hardness as same as the sample we sent you last time. The new sample will be finished on Wednesday. Let us see what it looks like.  We will keep you posted."

Manufacturing Update: 
After almost two months of efforts, the factory was finally able to source gasket material for the stash-box and they're getting started on making two more bike seats now. Kudos again to the folks at Berkeley Sourcing Group for their hard work in getting the job done!

These two bike seats will come with rear reflectors, added on during this iteration. This will also be our first opportunity to see the packaging printed and assembled on the bike seats for shipping.

We should receive these next two bike seats within a month from now, and if everything is as expected, we should have our first hundred bike seats later this summer!
