2 Stars Seat is too small
They need a way to advise as to how this thing is sized. It’s too small for my seat and is useless unless I can find a grand child that needs one.
5 Stars Not being retarded I knew what I was ordering and am very happy with my seat cover
I’m trying to trim down and am cycling to help get back in shape. Unfortunately I’ve learned that if you don’t use a seat pad like this why biking long distances and often, your -cough- undercarriage will chafe and hurt intensly. This seat cover fixed all that, I am now biking comfortably and happily. I am using this on a normal mountain bike seat, I dunno what doofus that they could slap this on an excercise bicycle.

2 Stars good until it melts
I had a little trouble getting this saddle cover to fit tightly, it took some effort to get the ties real taught and to cross tie them under the seat. It worked pretty well for a while, but then over time it felt like the gel was breaking up and then I left the bike in the sun and the gel started to melt an ooze out of the material. That was it, it was ruined. It lasted one season of riding. Felt good when it worked.
4 Stars Not for bicycles
I did a search on Amazon for bicycle seat cover. I saw the picture for this and the price and it looked perfect. Unfortunately, I scanned the reviews too quickly. What I thought I read was that it was a bit too tight so I was thinking this would be perfect for a road bike. But in reality it apparently is perfect for a STATIONARY bike. One of those with the huge seat on it. For a bicycle this thing is too big, at least for standard seats.
I rated it for the quality and price which is good. The description is misleading.
1 Star Horrible
I am extremely disappointed with this product. I only bought one because my recent seat was stolen. I had it for easily 1-2yrs and it was still in pretty good shape. The one I recently purchased is horrendous. I will have to purchase another after only a month’s use. It has ripped at the sides, the gel is coming out. I do not understand how all the previous gel seats I have bought have consistently lasted for at least a year and this one did not last even a month. This was the worst purchase made.
2 Stars Wears thin quick
This seat cover is very comfortable, but if your saddle is not the same size as the cover then the sides will wear thin quickly and the gel will seep out.
Within 2 weeks the gel started to come out the sides.

5 Stars Awesome Seat; will never buy any other kind
This is the most comfortable bicycle seat I have ever rode on. I am a big guy, about 220lbs, and I will always use a ISM saddle in the future
2 Stars The poorest quality saddle I have ever seen
First let me start with the positive. If you have any kind of pain in the crotch area (male or female), there is a great chance that this saddle will alleviate that pain. Understand that the adjustment can be a bit tricky, but the instructions that come with the saddle are quite clear. Now the reason for giving it only 2 stars: The saddle is of the lowest imaginable quality. Every one of these that I know of started wearing off the graphics within the first few days of use. The stapling on the underside is almost a joke. For the amount charged for some of these Adamo saddles, I would think that the product would be of a higher quality. The profit margins must be immense, because if it cost them more than 1/10th of the MSRP to manufacture, I would be astounded.
Get it to alleviate pain, but if you are in the least bit anal and want a quality product, this not your saddle.

4 Stars specialty bike seat
the ISm touring bike seat is for a specific purpose and that is to protect a mans prostate gland. I had this cancer I know. TW
4 Stars works fine
A seat like this takes some getting used to, but after a break-in period for the rider and for the seat, it works fine at being comfortable. Mind you, I do not take many long rides, so it has not been tested that way. But when I get on a regular seat now, it feels uncomfortable and a bit dangerous. I am giving it 4 stars instead of 5 only because I have not made a true comparison with its competitors.

4 Stars good product i’ll it buy again
This bicycle seat is comfortable provides enough cushion for your hinny. The light on the back seat is bright and can be seen. I purchased it in Iraq; the only problem is they would not ship it overseas. So I had to have a friend sent it to me. Another down fall to this seat is you have to store it inside because the spandex outer lining does not stand up to the elements.
5 Stars Bell SuperLuxe Lighted Adult Bicycle Seat
The Bell SuperLuxe Lighted Adult Bicycle Seat is great! It came on time and in good condition. I like the way it turns itself off after about 15 seconds after getting off the bike. It help me to sell my electric bikes I build greatly! Added touches of break,turn signals,anti-theft alarms and this seat make a bike much eaiser to get the attention of the next customer to buy one of my bikes. This is a great investment to e-bike sellers as well as any rider who cares about his/her safety while riding in traffic! I intend to buy more to make my e-bikes more appealing.

5 Stars Give yourself or someone you love this essential for the roads
This would have to be the smartest product I have ever bought!
Not only is it comfortable to sit on, it also switches it self on and off automatically. Great for Kids who are on the go.
Let the Superluxe switch the flashing light on for your child when you are unable to be there for them.
Its also super brite. Love this product. Get one is all I can say.
4 Stars Works well but is a bit short
Minor nitpicks: the fabric is not reliably attached to the gel.
I think the only way to fix that is to replace the fabric with
some heavier duty material.
The seat is a bit too short and of a bit of an odd shape but
not badly though. I hope a second generation of the seat
will be better in these respects.
The must have feature is the shock sensor: you’re
not caught with the pants down, er, dead battery
because you forgot to turn this thing off.
If you don’t need builtin light and the shock sensor
then obviously you have a lot of choices for alternative
seats.
