Surprisingly, the Toupe Gel isn't as comfortable as the normal Toupe (at least for me). The regular version flexes to provide a little bit of comfort. With the Gel version, the padding isn't comfortable and the seat doesn't flex as much as the normal Toupe, perhaps due to the padding itself.

Yeah, I really dislike "gel" saddles. Some folks were complaining that the shell of the Toupe non-gel flexed too much. For me, it's perfect. I also have and use an SLR Flow. Definitely higher quality/better made than the Toupe, but not quite as comfortable for me.
