 If it fits - you really can't go wrong December 1, 2008
Catharsis (Hollywood, CA USA)
Obviously you're looking for an improvement to your seat (no?)... Well this will be definitely that - gel is really a wise choice for comfort. If it's the only choice - I'm sure that's the million dollar question but for now gel is a step in the right direction...
But just make sure it fit's - other wise your having to make do with what you end up with and you wont wanna return it because it's just not worth your time... Like the old saying goes "desperate times are worth desperate measures" (I'm sure we've all been there).... Ha, ha, ha....
Excellent value in a gel seat cover. November 3, 2008

This is my second gel seat cover. I'm already a huge believer in gel seat covers because I used to find riding my bike very uncomfortable and using a gel seat cover allowed me to bike a lot more with a lot less discomfort for a small investment. The gel padding takes the edge off the pressure on the pelvic bone and allows me (a heavy guy - 300+ lbs) to bike for hours. My last seat (not Bell) lasted 3 years - until the gel started to lose its integrity (and form loose chunks under the cover. I was a little nervous about the Bell Gel Base because it's so inexpensive. I was afraid it would smaller or thinner or somehow compromised - but no problems. The Bell Gel Base is just as good as any gel seat cover I've seen and fit both my large seat and my wife's small seat just fine (via the adjustable pull cord). The Gel is firm but deep and works great.
The concept with a seat cover is you just put it over your existing seat. The possible downsides are that it might slip a bit to one side during use. I periodically have to straighten mine out - but no big deal. The upside (over buying a special gel seat) is that it's less expensive and when it wears out you just buy another.

The seat cover fits my seat very well, and it stays very secure while I ride. There is a lot of cushion, and it definitely helps make my bike less painful to ride, however it is not a 100% improvement. The covered seat is still a bit hard to sit on, but I can ride comfortably for much longer periods of time than I could without it. I would recommend this product.
Comfy Seat August 4, 2008

The seat of my bicycle is already well padded, but I found that the bikes in the spin center had much narrower and uncomfortable seats. I can take this gel base seat cover into the spin room with my water and towel, slip it on, and enjoy a more comfortable spin session!

I have finally committed to getting back in shape after my baby. Though I love riding in the morning, placing myself on an uncomfortable, unyielding seat was rough and just impossible! The gel seat has solved my problems and alleviated all my rear-end discomforts so I can enjoy my workout!
