Review on ๐Ÿช‘ Comfortable & Responsive: Serfas FS-243 Full Suspension Hybrid Reactive Gel Saddle by Jordan Epps

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Warranty claim, spandex cover, covered with sheepskin

I like this saddle better than other standard foam saddles, so much so that I bought two. However, my first had spot welds (or something like that) that came loose and caused the saddle at the very front to rock up and down. Serfas was good as a substitute. A saddle still clicks slightly in the same area. Both spandex will peel and fall off exposing a layer of foam (see photo). It's not nice. Also, the foam is really too dense to be as comfortable as it could otherwise be. To fix both of these later issues, I decided to cover both saddles with the Secure Fit Sheepskin Bicycle Seat Cover, available here at Revain. Lambskin fits, but hardly. Now I have comfort beyond anything I could imagine. If I could do it again, I would just buy sheepskin for my old saddles.

Pros
  • Full suspension base
Cons
  • Lots of stuff
