Your butt will thank youApr 06, 2006
By Chris
"Mom_of_M/K"
This seat is great. I started taking spinning classes recently and the seats on those bikes are torture! After spending $30 on a pair of padded biking shorts, I'd still feel the pain. I don't feel any pain when I use this seat cover, though. It feels a bit awkward until you get used to it, because of the space in the middle. But, that space really does reduce the amount of pressure you feel right on the bone.
Sometimes I wear my biking shorts in addition to using the seat, and then I REALLY feel good! I could spin all day and night that way. But, if I had to choose between either the shorts or the seat cover, I'd definitely go with the seat.
I haven't tried any other seats out there, so I don't how it compares to those. It does appear to be one of the cheapest, though.

Yes, it feels less painful for sureAug 14, 2006
By Soo Yun Kim

Maybe I shouldn't have read other reviews before I purchased this.
I think I expected some kind of miracle out of this product.
It was not as great as I expected.
Honestly I did not feel must relief as other users felt at first, even though it was better than nothing.
And then about a month passed, now I'm starting to get used to it.
It's quite OK.
At the price of $13.99, I think it's quite OK.
It's not like riding a bike sitting on clouds, and yet, it feels much less painful.
I don't think I could ride my bike without it anymore.

Relief on spin bikeSep 02, 2011
By Margo H. Goodin I've tried a similar gel seat cover with a narrower centre groove, but this one is better for women due to wider 'indentation', which means no rubbing, no pressure. I use this on the 'spin' bike at the gym and I wouldn't be able to get through the class without it.

Pleases my buttSep 23, 2008
By Allen First off, I put this on my girlfriend's Gary Fisher Tarpon. It's 3 times more comfortable as before. The gel gives very good support to the rear part of your "end" (Area closer to your tailbone). I use the Bell Contour gel seat cover but find this Bell Relief one more to be more comfortable. Unlike other reviews, I found the seat cover quite tight/stable. It has that rubber like surface on the bottom that grips on to your original seat pretty well. Given no seat cover can stay 100% without any movement at all, this one stays on your seat perfectly fine. If you feel it shifts too much, tie a knot with the two strings around the seat post for extra security. I recommend this seat cover for anyone who likes doing light trail/dirt or just road biking.

Hated it!!Aug 31, 2006
By Cynthia I bought this to use in Spin classes at the gym but experienced one of my most uncomfortable classes ever as a result. First, it barely fit on the seat. My primary complaint, however, is that the gel in the back half of the cover is quite a bit thicker than the gel in the front...this essentially put me on a slope. If I let go with one hand to grab my water or tried to sit up straight, the seat would essentially propel me forward -- my pelvis would tilt at an awkward angle and I'd have to grab onto the handles to keep from losing my balance. It wasn't too bad when I was leaning forward resting on the handles, but even then I had to be careful to not slide forward and down the slope of the seat cover. As far as I'm concerned, it was money wasted and I'll never use it again!! I'd rather go without a gel cover at all. Maybe I'll leave it at the gym and hope someone steals it.
