Description Men's touring seat. Leather plus color panels with reflective tail piece. Side, nose bumpers, ultralight padding and kraton rubber insert in base. Ti Rails. Black
Bike Setup: Trek 2100 Composite, Alexrims, Cateye Astrale 8
Summary: The Aireon men's saddle with the 'Love Channel' is an excellent seat for the price. When comparing seats that have the same firmness while still being comfortable it is a hands-down winner. The Aireon is in the league with saddles that cost $60-$100 just without the name brand.
Strengths: Very comfortable after break-in period, absolutely no discomfort after 3-4 hour training rides, stylish (for a $20 saddle), just plain gets the job of making the saddle an invisible part of the bike.
Weaknesses: Heavier than the other saddles in its comfort category, over double the weight (I believe it is around 250 grams where the others are 120 grams), feels as though it may wear out and not stand up to water as well as the others.
