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 theseโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Full suspension base
Cons
  • Lots of stuff

It relieves very bumpy roads.

It won't be perfect but for the money I can't complain. I still feel the bumps in the road, but now I find I'm very conscious of the bumps going through my hands and arms, meaning the sharpness has been taken off my back. If I had to give a number, I'd say the seat suspension reduces the effects of bumps by 30%, which is possibly all it takes to take your cycling experience from "unbearable" to "bearable". improve by more than 50%, you will probably want to spend a lot more money on a goodโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Rear leaf spring suspension
Cons
  • Not automatic

Four and a half stars because 5 should be perfect -- and that's almost perfect. I really liked the seat, I bought a second one. Use on mountain bikes and hybrids. It's soft but still feels like a seat. Big rear springs are ugly and not aesthetically pleasing for a true cyclist, but I'm 57 and need a seat with padding and padding. So it works. Serfas makes good products. I now have three of their saddles including the RX. I recommend them to all men who want to protect themselves from nerveโ€ฆ

Pros
  • 90 day comfort guarantee on all saddles
Cons
  • old

Saving my bum in parts and components

This saddle must have been made by Jesus because it restored my ability to walk and ride! (not funny) Review: My old saddle was a thinly padded Schwinn and it was killing my sit bones. During the ride I had to stand on the petals every few minutes to rest. I tried setting it up and gave it a month but couldn't get used to it. I read a lot of reviews and based on the good reviews I decided to try the Serfas saddle. At first I wasn't happy with my new saddle. It seemed to put pressure in oddโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Dual density core technology
Cons
  • A few little things
