Bike Seats - Twitchin Kitten - 10-12-2011
OK this is more for Twist but if anyone has any knowledge of bike seat comfort for sport riding, not beach cruiser bikes - chime in!
I bought a nice seat from Nashbar a few months ago but it's only comfy on short rides. The reason the seat itself is a little hard. So, I've been looking on Ebay now for some kind of deal and not spend too much money on trying different seats until I find one that I love.
So, Twist - what do you think of THIS seat?
or THIS one?

Well, you know you have probably heard me say this a few times before. The seat has to be right for you, it has to fit you so your sit bones are supported not your soft bits in the middle, and no matter how good the seat is you gotta get up off of it now and again.
Basically you should probably try it out. Now I don't know if a bike shop is gonna let you try one for a few days, some guy on e-bay sure the hell won't let you try one. But places like nashbar are like wal-mart, they will take pretty much anything back.
I had a $50 seat from nashbar, I put like 20-30 miles on it and didn't like it, and just sent it back, then got lucky and really liked the next one.

I remember all of that. I was asking more along the hopes you had some knowledge on quality of the brand.

Meh, probably just like anything else, the more you pay the better they are....kinda, I love those cheapo nashbar seats.
The one you listed I don't recognize the brand right off and the other one I can't see.
I do have a Terry liberator saddle that I kinda like.
