Hey folks-in-the-know...

Do gel saddles freeze if you leave your bike in below zero weather?

Too cold to notice at that point. Fortunately at work my bike sits in an 82f IT server closet.

I think Koobi saddles with urethane elastomers would be more immune to the cold. I ride a couple Koobis, they feel just the same in the cold. (--it's tricky to observe them while riding, heh--)

When it's below zero most people have a few layers on and that adds extra padding to the seat anyway.

I suppose they could get very stiff, at least.

BUT, wouldn't one's hot butt warm up the saddle anyway?
