Cloud-9 Comfort Men's Saddle, 11' x 7.75'

Better Confortable than my original seat.

My son (and my wife for that matter) cannot stand those skinny uncomfortable seats that most mountain bikes have. I don't mind, but then again, they don't ride as much as I do, so they are not used to it. So, before I rebuilt one of our old TREK bikes which will have included a new seat, I decided to look into what's out there in terms of comfort and, for that lack of a better term, sportiness. I wanted something comfortable yet still compact -- a not-so-big seat that would not overpower the rest of the bike, in other words.When it comes to aftermarket parts and accessories for bikes, things like bags and handle bars and whatnot, I really like what Sunlite has to offer. They offer stuff of the highest quality at affordable prices, and their line of CLOUD 9 comfort seats are no different.As for the seat:According to my son who rides the bike the most, he thinks that this seat is very comfortable. I believe now that he will actually ride this bike more often. My wife, too, thinks that it is better than most seats, but she also thinks that it is still not as comfortable as a full-blown comfort seat with their wide saddle and spring-loaded goodness. It's true, this seat is a compromise, but a pretty darn good compromise, nonetheless. Though a huge comfort seat would have made this particular bike look weird, like a big UFO had landed on the seat post.The color scheme of the seat is neutral, with its colors of grey and dark grey. It should look fine on a wide range of bikes.It comes with one of those old-school seat post clamps, but you can take it off and use the more modern clamp that is already built on to newer seat posts. By the way, Sunlite makes really great, high-quality seat posts too.The foam top is very comfortable; it's very squishy. And the rubber-bumper style springs work continually while you pedal, slightly rocking back and forth with each leg pump, not to mention too that they absorb a ton of bumps on really rocky ground.My only beef is that heavier folks like me who weigh over 200 pounds can really give those rubber springs quite a workout. It seems to me that I am either bottoming them out or that they are under a lot of stress when riding over the harshest of terrain. It's a somewhat annoying feeling. They also make that familiar sound when springs are under stress, sorta like a grinding noise. Though, I'm sure this would be true for all comfort seats, and that I probably would bottom out all but the most springiest of them. Then again, I'm so used to a rigid seat, that a seat like this would probably just take time to get used to. Sunlite makes the very same CLOUD 9 seat but WITHOUT the rubber springs. So, perhaps that might be the way to go if you are heavy. Either that or get a full-blown, monstrous comfort seat.If you want a more modern-looking comfort seat that isn't the size of a UFO but still provides plenty of squishy comfort, then you really can't go wrong here. Highly Recommended!

I can’t say much about comfort just yet due to installing last night, but if it’s half as comfortable as it is beautiful and well built this will be an amazing seat! Super easy install.

Very comfortable

I purchased this based on many positive user reviews. HOwever, I found it to be very uncomfortable to my bottom. It's probably due to my anatomy :) . This is my 4th comfort seat which I am going to return. I now revert back to a Bell comfort seat that I purchased from Walmart at $25.00 (rightmost in the picture) which I found to be the most comfortable. The seat in the middle of the picture is a no name brand from ebay - the material and contour are better suited to me and hence more comfortable than the Cloud-9 which I consider as the least comfortable of the 4.
