Comfortable saddle. Great price.

This is a great saddle for anyone that is budget conscious. It provides the necessary padding for comfort on long rides. I havent had it long enough to comment on durability, but it seems to be well constructed and the materials are of reasonable quality. You can not go wrong with this saddle. I changed out a low end Bontrager for this saddle and noticed the difference on the first ride. Hope this helps. Good riding!!!

I was surprised with how great it is

About 6 months ago, I stopped in to my local bike shop & bought the cheapest seat they had: this one. It cost like $12. I dont ride every day, but I do ride often & for miles at a time & I gotta say, this is the most comfortable seat Ive ever owned!
I intended it as a temporary fix before I bought a better seat, but this one worked out so well...

Someone previously mentioned having an issue with it because its small. I think its about average sized seat. Ive certainly seen smaller & flimsier seats commonly sold at bike shops.
I would like to mention that I happen to be a pretty little dude, 51" & about 145 lbs.

Uncomfortable

I guess the gel works, because its really bouncy, but the design of the seat kind of does the opposite of what its attempting with that hole.

I think you can tell by the looks of it

This seat is tiny and firm. I thought it would be good to try since it has "gel" and it has the space to protect your unit but the seat is not at all comfortable. After about 1 mile it starts to hurt your bottom. There is no chance in hell of relaxing on this thing, just look at it. Its sooo tiny. Maybe if youre a guy whose 5 foot 4 and weighs 140lbs, but if youre near 200lbs or over, dont even think about it. I think this is designed for racers like Lance.

Fantastic

This is a remarkably comfortable road saddle. It certainly beats the majority of its peers.
