I've been doing a lot of research on seats because i don't want to become impotent resulting from excessive bike riding. I've tried 3 other seats and all of them make my private area go numb after about 30 - 40 min. or riding, which is cutting off my circulation to my juevos. Though I do sit up straight with no hands a lot which puts more pressure on my private area, I'm aware that sitting this way is bad. None the less, I still found a seat that is the most comfortable so far, and I'm not going numb even when I sit up straight. It's a great design that allows you to put most of your weight on your bum, not your crotch. It comes with an inflatable middle piece to fill in the crotch space but I didn't bother using it. Works fine without it. I've been riding 1 hour and a half workouts and this thing is awesome. Definitely worth the money. I approve. I only gave it 4 stars because I know I could be a bit MORE comfortable with some minor changes.

This seat seems comfortable enough, but it has too much up and down and side-to-side play in it. As a result, there is a constant "scrunching" noise, like squirrels make. This can be very annoying to the rider, as well as to others. By the way, the rider only weighs 135 pounds.

After 2 years trying to find a good saddle for my bike Norco VFR with a Gel saddle that was just OK I am now riding what I would consider the best so far, beautifully comfortable sit bone support and enough give in the perineum area to be comfortable all day
