Oooooooooh Little Leeeeeeeeeooooooooo!!
 
I remember you posting about getting a saddle a while back. What did you end up getting? I need a new saddle for my new old bike and was just wondering what you settled for. :)

Siu Blue Wind 12-12-06 04:48 PM

He was going to buy an $80 saddle and I was wondering what it was. Or if he even bought it.

Pheard 12-12-06 05:09 PM

I don't remember little leo, who's dat.

Edit: D'oh there he is, he has an active topic right now!

Little Leo 12-12-06 05:45 PM

Cut the S*** dude. I said some stuff I shoud not've.

Pheard 12-12-06 05:50 PM

So wait... the seat you got was shltty? I'm confused....

Little Leo 12-12-06 05:50 PM

I was looking at/ordering a Specialized Avatar Gel. But then I got a BG saddle from LowCel that I just paid shipping on! It works great. It solved my numb feet.

Siu Blue Wind 12-12-06 05:56 PM

Maybe I took it wrong but you seemed a little snappy at first.

Well anyway, glad to hear your numbness is better. Now you can enjoy riding. That was real nice of LowCel, though. He is not one to be a tightwad, that's for sure. I know that if he can help someone to further their enjoyment in riding, he is always there to help. :)

Pheard 12-12-06 06:09 PM

He was referring to hank's comment siu.

Little Leo 12-12-06 06:14 PM

Nope, sorry if I sounded snappy.

Yes LowCel saved me 80 bucks! And the seat is very nice. :)

What does it matter how old you are? I have some friends who know more about bikes than most shop owners do.

The saddle on my new old bike is gel. I have to get something better later. But then I haven't even received the bike yet so maybe it will still be okay. Just that the original owner said that maybe I should go for one that is not gel.

JKWITS 12-12-06 06:35 PM

Another bike?

What have you got this time?

Little Leo 12-12-06 06:41 PM

But gel would be much nicer :D

It's nicer yes, but it is not good for long distance.

Because with gel you end up not just using your sit bones on the saddle. The gel pushes up into your *ahem* and puts pressure there because it is trying to support you. You want to be supported by your sit bones not by your *ahem*.

DirtPedalerB 12-12-06 07:58 PM

what kind of seats you got on your MTB?? I'd just put one of those on it, or at least close to the same type..

can't look any worse than those brooks saddles.

:p

Makes senses.

if it's a road bike, don't be afraid to say it. i just got one and i'm quite happy with it. compliments the XC stuff pretty well.

and i agree, you want to be supported by the sit bones, not the gooch.

15 years old and massive leg muscles, comparable to a tree trunk.

I agree that my age means I have less experience, but Sui was just asking how I liked my new seat.
