I encountered the same when purchasing my Ather. I requested a side step to be added, but they didn’t provide me with an invoice for it. ---

Title: Disappointing Quality of Seat Replacement for Ather 450X (Gen3) - Seeking Support Hello fellow Ather owners, I’m reaching out to share my recent experience with the seat replacement for my Ather 450X (Gen3, DL8GD6272), hoping it will raise awareness and prompt action from Ather’s support team. I purchased a brand-new seat from the service center on June 30, 2023, for 3,857 INR. To my disappointment, within a few months, the seat started showing signs of cracking and wear (as seen in the attached images). It’s disheartening to face quality issues with a premium product like Ather. I’m currently seeking a replacement or refund for the defective seat. Has anyone else faced similar issues with their seat replacements? I would appreciate any advice or support from the community or Ather’s representatives. Images: Damaged seat on my DL8GD6272 Current state after a few months Let’s hope Ather addresses this issue promptly. ![WhatsApp Image 2024-10-03 at 11.20.49](https://bs-prod-discourse-uploads.s3.dualstack.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/original/3X/3/b/3bceef42567a251243f2c64fd8fa1058a51b4961.jpeg) ![WhatsApp Image 2024-10-03 at 11.20.49 (1)](https://bs-prod-discourse-uploads.s3.dualstack.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/original/3X/d/4/d446ffe9371e2ba4d0ef9269c4217b11ff816c2c.jpeg) ![WhatsApp Image 2024-10-03 at 11.20.20](https://bs-prod-discourse-uploads.s3.dualstack.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/original/3X/c/6/c6a42dbdaeb1e82c2b1914720c9fafaa60ac117b.jpeg) ---

Is it possible that you stuffed your seat with many things, that you needed to push hard to close it? Tbh I am looking to replace my Gen 3 seat with a newer Gen 3.1 seat. 3.8k is a bit too much for it though 💀 I am open to trading if you want ---

They didn’t even changed my brakes under the Ather pro pack and bro is getting everything for free. Maybe i should get hostility award. They wasted my 4k rs pack for nothing. Didn’t even gave my free service within that. ---

Hi does anyone know about break pads. I want to ask If I change my brake pads to sintered ones instead of the organic will this improve braking? If yes what brand/bike version will fit it? also any drawbacks of this? ---
