Price Paid:  $25.00 at Nashbar

Favorite Ride:
Where ever I am.

Bike Setup:
Fuji Roubaix Pro, Velocity Sparticus wheelset

Summary:
This seat fit my hips fine but, the padding actually made me go numb very quickly, The grove actually pinched the area that it was suppose to protect. Even though this is a low end saddle, they could have at least made it comfortable. This was not as comfortable as my old Avocet Racing III, and that was a brutal saddle.

Strengths:
good resale value on eBay

Weaknesses:
Too soft of padding actually made numbing worse.

Similar Products Used:
Avocet, Velo , Fizik Paggio

Price Paid:  $29.00 at stores, ebay

Bike Setup:
On my Airborne Valkyrie, GT Timberline LTD, Raliegh Tandem. BG Comfort on my Surly 1X1.

Summary:
I put this saddle on all my bikes (except cruisers). I love it so much that I always have a few on the shelf (thanks to ebay). I don't have a big butt by any stretch of the imagination. I'm 6 ft. tall and 158 lbs. Nevertheless, this "comfort" saddle is the one for me. I could never understand why my fellow long distance road cyclist use racing seats. This saddle is one of the top 10 greatest cycling inovations of the 20th century.

Strengths:
perfect support.

Weaknesses:
seat cover ripped after about 5000 miles. (a 1/2 incher)

Similar Products Used:
Specialized comfort BG saddle (not the comfort plus)
