Review on ๐Ÿšฒ Selle Royal Lookin RoyalGel Comfort Bicycle Seat by Richard Payne

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Planned obsolescence - an expensive, inferior saddle with built-in flaws.

First of all, this is not a "comfortable" saddle. It's quite complicated, but I understand that this is a matter of taste and opinion and will vary from person to person. Then just after the saddle hit the 3 month mark on dismounting, I barely scratched it with my boot and tore a large tear on the saddle. The material used is clearly not up to standard. I doubt this is a coincidence. Everyone knows that the top of a saddle has to withstand a certain amount of stress. If I ride my bike once a week, the saddle lasts a year, two, three. But I ride it every day, so it broke in just over three months. This product is clearly designed to fail. I will stay away from this over priced brand that is under supplied.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Useless features
