Does a gel pad really improve the comfort?
Many of our previous customers have telephoned to let us know that their gel pads have improved the comfort of their seats. Generally people find that it lets them ride their bike for a longer period of time. Sitting on a gel pad does not instantly feel more comfortable, but over time the reduction of vibration and pressure points let you get more miles in the saddle. If your seat is a bad shape for you, or if the seat angle is making you slide to the front of the seat, this type of discomfort should be addressed by having a foam alteration. A gel pad reduces pressure points and vibration, but cannot solve the problems caused by a bad seat shape.
