Gel Bicycle Saddle are padded with what is called "closed cell" foam which is a form of rubber with air bubbles trapped within its confines.

Gel Leather Bicycle Saddle

When the Flite saddle was unveiled a few years ago it looked like an old leather Brooks race saddle with sides cut away, and maybe it was based on that idea, but was a modern saddle with plastic base and titanium rails, it was light and strong enough even for mountain bikers to use them off road.

Gel Bicycle Saddles

It seems like all the rage in the last few years when it comes to a comfortable bicycle seat has been the use of gel padding in the seat. Gel first found it's way into bicycle saddles approximately 10 years ago but has become very popular in the last few years.

What attracts most new riders to Gel is that a Gel bicycle saddle will have a soft touch and usually passes the "thumb" test quite easily. Gel bicycle seats do a good job of spreading the pressure over the seat but we should be very clear on this, simply because it is a gel bicycle seat does not mean it is going to be any more or less comfortable than your current seat.

A well designed Gel bicycle saddle that is right for you will be very comfortable but don't be lulled by the term gel into thinking that it is going to be magic. It still needs to be the right design and size for your sit-bones AND your riding style. The VERY first thing that you need to consider is getting the right size first. Your new bicycle seat could be made out of the best stuff on the planet, but if it is the wrong size then the discomfort that you might feel, could be legendary. Not a good thing.

Gel saddles could be the perfect choice for you as long as you select a quality saddle from a quality company that is the right geometry for you. My own wife rides a gel saddle and she decided on a Selle Italia Lady gel saddle for her needs. She tried out a number of other saddles before settling on this one for her. If you are convinced that Gel saddles might be right for you then we have a number of them that we can point you towards that may solve your needs.
