Like many of you I researched different types of bike saddles hoping to find a good mix of comfort and performance. I created this video to share my experiences with this seat so others could make a more informed decision before buying. I've added specific measurements and my overall thoughts on the seat. You be the judge if this saddle is right for you. Happy riding!

5.0 out of 5 stars Best seat I've owned, June 20, 2007

Over the years, I've owned everything from Selle San Marco to Specialized Body Geometry, and this seat is seriously the most comfortable seat I've ever owned. If you're looking for the lightest seat around, this isn't it; mine weighs 390 grams. But if you want to be comfortable for hours on end, buy this seat. I can't recommend it enough. I do my best to keep my mountain bike under 20lbs., so I've saved weight elsewhere to make up for the extra grams of this seat and it's totally worth it. I plan on buying the women's version for my wife soon, too.

I'm a big guy, and I've been looking for a saddle that relieves pressure in "that area" for some time. Now that I have put 150 miles on this saddle, I can say I found it. Cheap, too! Unfortunately I think the materials are a bit on the cheap side as well. I don't expect it to last years and years, but at these prices I can afford to swap it out of the fabric splits.

Like others, the decals are peeling off of mine quickly, but that's OK. I would rather it didn't have big bright logos against the black material. The important thing is, my big wide butt fits on this saddle just right: it tucks up and supports the sit bones without pressing in on "that area" and making things sore or worse, numb.

If they made this in a more durable material I would never buy another saddle ever.
