No, it did not real the all the pressure, just change where the pressure was. With the cut outs in the saddle it felt like I was sitting on the toilet. I rode the Flite with gel, it helped with the pressure, but I did not like the feel of the saddle. I rode about 500 miles on the gel, and then went back to Flite. It could have had something to do with the Flite having many more miles on it.
The Pro Link looks like a very nice saddle, I just don't my anatomy likes the cutouts. I would put 500+ miles on the saddle before I would make the call thought.
