Review on 🚴 Enhance Your Cycling Experience with Bell Comfort 525 Sport Bicycle Seat by Guerdon Draper

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not really comfortable

I've looked through a few seats in my time and have to say there's an idea that more padding is better, which I just don't believe. The shape is the biggest factor in how comfortable the seat will be, specifically the width should match your sit bones. This Bell seat, while very soft, has a shape that I don't like. It runs down each side and doesn't really offer much support. Cushioning cannot compensate for poor form. For the record, I really like WTB Rocket, which I think offers much better support. Saddles are very important as they are one of the three points of contact with your bike. You can get a really decent saddle for $15-20, so I'll probably skip that and check out the WTB lineup. They have the best shape and are available in different widths and stiffness.
