Seat Saver

[Meredith]

Seat savers are made thick for comfort but all the ones I have tried are much too thick. They fill too much of the saddle seat. I have tried real sheepskin and a Heather Moffat one. Does anyone know of a thin one. Thanks

You could try an Acavello gel one - they are either gel-out for increased stickablity or gel-in for a normal, comfortable seat saver. They cost about £50 I think and aren't too thick at all.

Thanks, I will investigate.

Never tried one, but as Tash88 suggested, the Acavello is supposed to be very slim.
I have used the Heather Moffat gel seatbone saver, and personally didn't find it too thick.
Hope you can find something that works for you.

Avacallo, either gel in or out - they are both thin

Avacallo gel out is brilliant, can't ride without mine now ! I have the normal one and the extra cushion version, extra cushion is far comfier and not as bulky as expected, its heavy to hold but once on the saddle its fine.

I'm thinking of an Acavello..... have tried the Heather Moffat thing and it was sheer torture to ride in No wonder there's so many of the blessed things for sale on e-bay........

I cannot get on with seat savers at all. .. it is easier nowadays though since gaining a little weight ;-)

I have a shires supafleece one which I use in the winter, I don't find it takes up too much room, but it's lovely and soft and warm on cold days!
