[QUOTE="Twigg, post: 1158939, member: 27619"] There are reasons why these threads, and not just here, go on forever. The seat you need depends on your butt, your wallet and the riding you do ... and there are a few variations on that combination. My wallet is "challenged". I tried sheepskin, beads and AirHawk before springing $830 on a Russell. That purchase made all the problems go away. Prior to that I had been able to extend my day, but the pain always returned at some point. The best thing I can say about the Russell is that I simply forgot it was there. I am hearing lots of good things about Laam. However, I have seen no reports of multiple 1000 mile days on one. If you don't want to do that, maybe Laam is all you need. Same for Corbin, which I have never found to be anything other than expensive fashion items, and I have owned several. In the end, probably 80% of serious distance riders buy Russell, so unless you have some specific need that prevents a Russell, you may as well save yourself the expense and discomfort of trying everything else first, and just get one :D [/QUOTE]
