Review on 🚴 TONBUX Dual Shock Absorbing Ball Bike Seat - Most Comfortable Bicycle Seat Replacement with Wide Memory Foam and Gel Padding Including Mounting Wrench by Robby Agrawal

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Poor quality of materials and workmanship

Pure, real junk. I should have read the reviews first but I bought it for the looks and the fact that it had a gel seat. The important things first. When I opened the box the first impression I got was that the seat was not gel. It could be a gel but it's more like memory foam, I've had memory foam before and it didn't serve my purpose. HOWEVER I had a gel seat cover so I figured I could use the seat and just put the cover on it. So I used the seat anyway. I installed it this morning and then went to check. I ride my bike to work every day so comfort is important - I ride 5 miles one way. My first impression was that the seat would probably be ok since I put a cover on it. HOWEVER, another one pops up. While driving, I noticed that the seat didn't fit properly. I stopped the bike and looked at the seat. At first I thought I might not have tightened the mounting bolts enough, but upon closer inspection I found that the brackets on the seat were actually bending, which was funny as ever I left (by then I was driving home), it got worse and worse. Fearing that it would actually break, I decided to walk the rest of the way home. So all in all I rode about 2 1/2 miles and then walked another mile to get home and install the original seat.
