4 Stars Nice seat, but I still got a little sore. We went on a 17 mile downhill bike ride with my new seat. Its very comfortable & soft but I still got a little sore, but soreness did not last long. But I still think it is a nice comfortable seat.
4 Stars great for cloth and price Absolutely great once I got it adjusted properly. I ride about 10 miles commuting every day of the week. It's cloth so it absorbs water in the rain. But that's really my own complaint. It's quite comfortable and very good for my back once I figure out where I needed it to be. For the price(!) I would highly recommend it... Very good value.
4 Stars Soft but small This bike seat is very soft and well made. The reasone I gave it 4 stars and not 5 is due to the width of the seat. For larger riders this seat is very narrow. I found the stock seat on my Schwinn Ridge AL bike to be more comfortable.
2 Stars Over Rated OK...it's better than a lot out there on the market. But, it still doesn't stack up to what I usually install on the older road bikes I refurbish & sell. What I usually buy is an Avenir Groove Dual Saddle. I bought one of these at my local K-Mart to save a couple of bucks. I wish I would've spent the few extra bucks for the Avenir Saddle. Bottom line...it's OK, but not great.Avenir Groove Dual Saddle (Black/Grey, Groove Dual (M)) Avenir Groove Dual Saddle (Black/Grey, Groove Dual (W))
5 Stars Comfort and economy - a great combination!
pros: comfortable, standard installation, easy to adjust, inexpensive
cons:
This seat is super comfortable. I had a chance to take a trip on a very uncomfortable saddle recently and have come to appreciate my Schwinn saddle even more. I've used it almost daily for my 8 mile (x2) commute since I started biking 3 months ago. I just took it on my first real ride - 33 miles. Toward the end I was experiencing numbness which may have been avoided by moving the front of the saddle down a bit but overall I had a great ride thanks to this saddle! For comparison's sake I'm height/weight proportionate and wear chamois bike shorts when I ride. I have virtually no rear end, so I need all the cushioning I can get!
I can see where durability may be an issue in a year or two or five, but I'm willing to deal with the minor hassle of buying a new saddle sooner should that happen.
