Comfort worth the price

Very well made seat. There is a noticeable difference in comfort. I did a lot of research before deciding on this chair. Good decision for me. But locations are a very personal decision. My rides on the trails are in the 4 hour range if that helps

Pros
  • GOLS certificate
Cons
  • Suitable

Very good seat, best for cycling

This is the third seat I've been using since I started my MTB journey 6 months ago. Since then I've lost weight and built muscle in my core. These changes affect how you sit in the saddle. Not only is it comfortable and cut to relieve the male genital area, it comes with an adapter to slip a saddlebag underneath.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors

Great fit and padding!

I'm a very low M/L level, about 190lbs, I'm very happy with the fit and padding. This saddle allows me to ride 20 miles without padded shorts. My sit bones are perfectly supported by the gel, but don't soften too much. Changing position in the saddle while riding is fine.

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • Flaws

GREAT. .I bought a second one for my gravel bike

I wanted something tighter and definitely more comfortable. I've seen many people on the MTB forums highly recommend this seat and they weren't wrong. I immediately felt the difference; more lulling effect and very comfortable on long journeys. I have a Remedy 8, but I often ride it on long trips. I love it so much I bought a second one for my gravel bike.

Pros
  • Everything is great!
Cons
  • I have no negative feelings about it, everything is fine.

Great saddle but not as advertised

This is a great saddle but to be honest my stock Bontrager seat was more comfortable. However, it was larger in all dimensions. This saddle is thin and small, yet fairly soft, but the reviews I've seen on youtube and websites have mostly been hype. Overall, I'd still recommend it if you have a broken or uncomfortable seat, but I wouldn't bother to "upgrade" a perfectly good seat.

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Weight

Happy Butt Best in Sports

Item as described. The seat is comfortable. Feels good for a butt. No pain on the first ride. It really is the best saddle I've ever had. The build quality looks good. Luckily for me the money wasn't wasted. First I mount the saddle horizontally. nose down or up. Use the level gauge as a guide. The saddle was shipped quickly by the seller and arrived earlier than stated. Standard packaging. Although it can be better. But in general . Thank you seller for your service.

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Other Other

Great saddle for MTB!

A few weeks ago I bought an expensive mountain bike. I was in a lot of pain from the saddle it came with. I did a little research and found that I need a slightly wider saddle depending on where my butt is. I did a cardboard test for you to study and found that I needed the M/L saddle that Ergon offers. This saddle is so comfortable! I drove almost 30 km. I ride and don't feel pain like me. I definitely recommend finding out what size you really need and trying this very comfortable saddle!

Pros
  • Ideal for a small home
Cons
  • Not as thick as other models

Good saddle but I hope it gets better.

I did a lot of research on saddles and this one got a lot of good reviews so I bought it. It's definitely a lot better than the stock saddle I've been using, but after about 300 miles of riding I was hoping it would break in a bit and be better than before. It definitely helps relieve the pressure on the sit bones and I don't feel numb after about 4-6 hours of riding like I did with the old saddle so it's great but it's not as comfortable as I did expected based on reviews. I read. Hope it gets

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Volume

Amazing fit. For a younger and softer buttocks!

I liked everything about this chair from the looks to the relief volume in the crotch area. This seat eliminated any numbness I experienced in this area after long rides in my old seat. Unfortunately I couldn't save it and that's really my problem. As my wife likes to point out, my butt seems to be getting smaller and smaller every year now that I'm eligible for AARP. Even with the gel version, I quickly felt pain in my sit bones. It was even more uncomfortable than the previous perineal…

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Communication with seller
