4.0 out of 5 stars On the right bike - very confortable, June 14, 2006

By

I have about 75 miles on this saddle now, having tried in on two different bikes. The two bikes gave me different experiences.

This seat is great of your bike is a little too large for you. It doesn't work too well if the bike is a little too small for you.

The most comfortable position is to be almost leaning against the saddle vs. sitting atop it. So if the bike is big enough to allow you to scootch forward on the saddle and still extend your legs, you will probably like the saddle. But if you have to sit up on the saddle, it might be a little annoying to you.
The pads tended to rub my thighs when I sat atop the saddle, plus they move up/down slightly when peddling, a sensation that I don't care for.

Other positives - the rails are very long allowing lots of seat positions. Seems to be pretty well made.

Negatives - If you like the seat adjusted to be very wide, the seat will probably squeek if you weigh more than 150 lbs. The squeak goes away when the pads a postioned close to each other.

Bottom line: at about $50 it is a fairly expensive experiement. I was lucky -it didn't work well for the original bike I tried it on, but it works very well on my large cruiser bike.

I have used earlier versions of the split seat, and enjoyed them. This model is even better. I rode this model on my touring bike last year on a 2450 mile ride down the east coast (Maine to Key West, FL), so decide to get another for my other bike.

4.0 out of 5 stars Numb no more!!!!, July 24, 2007

Excellent seat if you have problems with prostate pain or going numb on longer rides. Great for us larger people (I'm 6'4 400lbs). Takes some getting use to but I like how the individual pads flex slightly when you're pedaling, Makes comtrolling the bike on single treks a little challenging but long road trips are a breeze now.
