What is the most comfortable bmx seat?

I know comfort is not a top priority to many, but if you had to cross Texas on your BMX bike, what seat would you choose?

I wouldn't cross Texas on my ROAD bike. F*ck that. I'm partial to the 99er, 'cause I haven't utterly destroyed mine yet. As far as comfort, the one on my road bike is as good as it gets...a Fizik Arione Limited. But the saddle on my road bike retails for more than some members' bikes are worth around here.

I have a demolition mini and its very comfortable. If your going cross texas I would get the regular sized one for some more comfort.

Poverty Sofa Seat. Its comfy but weighs a few ounces more than the "light" seats.

I really liked my Primo Balance, up until the point when I broke it. The DK seat I have now isn't too bad, either.

The most comfortable seat ever, though, has to be the old Haro Mirra seat.

Actually, I wasn't kidding. That is probably the most comfortable seat I've ever ridden.

I may look a little silly with a road saddle on my new bmx, but that is a thought. I have heard before that the Fizik is comfy. Also you hear good things about the Terry saddles (for road bikes too). I get the feeling they don't really make small cool looking bmx saddles that are comfy?

The reason you don't see Fi'zi:ks on BMX bikes is the Arione is a $150 saddle and the Aliante is like $220. There are cheaper racing saddles, some of the Selle San Marcos and Selle Italias are down just under $100, but that's a LOT of sponduli to drop on a part that BMXers are known for beating the sh*t out of.
