5.0 out of 5 stars Comfortable, durable basic saddle, November 25, 2009

I bought this saddle to replace the stock unit on my college commuter bike. It's a mid-quality mountain bike that I've outfitted for better commuter service and the stock saddle was becoming uncomfortable. When I first switched to this Planet Bike unit, it felt a bit weird, but after a couple days I had adjusted to it. Now after several months it feels natural, to the point you don't really notice you're sitting on it.

It's covered with sturdy vinyl and has a tougher textured vinyl on the sides. The covering is well-attached, and wraps around to the bottom where it covers the bottom of the saddle. I don't think it will come apart at the bottom like cheaper units that only have the covering stapled on. The logo on the sides is starting to wear off, as it seems to be just printed on. This really doesn't bother me; it's Planet Bike's loss of advertising!

My final advice is that it might take a little time to adjust to this saddle, especially if you used to ride on a cheap stock unit or one of those awful gel-filled monstrosities. It is shaped well for normal riding and seems to have the right amount of padding: not too soft but not too stiff.

I've always been pleased with Planet Bike products that I've purchased, and this is one more that fits this pattern.

This seat replaced another padded seat that was covered in fabric which ripped and got soaked when it rained. This seat has a vinyl covering that seems pretty durable. The level of padding is good and the shape is good. So far, I'm very happy with this seat.
