SMPHell Saddle

I have a Specialized Allez that came with the Toupe Sport saddle that was very uncomfortable for any rides over 10 miles. A local bike shop had recommended that I go wider, but the more research I did it did not seem to be the best option since I do not have a very large frame (5'9" 175lbs). After a friend had recommended Selle SMP. All I can say is this saddle feels amazing, no more pressure or discomfort, feels as though I am sitting on a pillow, the construction is also very well.

Moved to this saddle from a Specialized Toupe 143mm.Very comfortable. The contour in the middle, along with the hole, really helps my sit bones sit and rotate comfortably without pressing or numbing my sensitive area.I'm fairly a flexible road bicyclist, and this saddle accommodates both upright position on the tops and and the hoods and aggressive position on the drops.Satisfied.jMade in Italy.BTW, the saddle I received was a "Well" saddle, not "Hell." Well is a newer version of Hell, which is absolutely identical to Hell except the name. I would have preferred Hell, though.

I can't praise this seat enough. It has zero flex in it, so nothing gets pinched down there, it's very well made and lightweight too. The shape is great, I haven't had any sit bone or groin discomfort since switching to it. The rails are a little extra long which allows for more room for adjustment. I've logged easily a few hundred miles on it and it's been just fantastic.

I loved this saddle but I can't spend 150 dollars every 2.5 years for a new saddle. That's how long it lasted. Just over it's 2 year warranty. See pictures. The saddle's skin is now cracking. You can see one big one in the picture and others starting to develop by the seem. I would love to buy another one by it I'm afraid I would have the same results. If you would pay 75 dollars a year for a well ftting saddle, buy it. For me it is too much!

I have to say that I am very happy with this saddle. After trying out many I have finally found a saddle that works for me. Completely alleviated my numbness and after several rides ranging from 30-60 miles. I used to figit around the saddle at the 25 mile mark but was completely comfortable at my last 62 mile ride with no issues. 5 star rating with a big thumbs up from me.

I have had this seat since May of 2019. It is now August. I have put it through about 6 or 7 rides. It absolutely helps with numbness and pain in the groin area. It however does transfer pain into the sit bones which is a lot more bearable. Unfortunately the seat is already starting to come apart around the sides. I really like the seat, but for 130$ I paid for it to fall apart this fast is pretty upsetting.

Have not gone for a long ride but I felt the difference by riding it just around the corner. Riding my mountain bike is going to be more enjoyable. Saddle is not too thick, not too thing, just the perfect amount of support. I will be buying 5 more for each of my bikes, they deserve a good quality saggier too!

Best saddle I've ever ridden. Was experiencing genital discomfort until I switched to this. Nothing since
