First things first,I was able to call with some concerns and somebody pickup on the second ring off to a good start.So far I have only ridden for 2 or 3 hours and the first thing I notice was know chafing on the inner thigh and I had know severe butt pain which causes you to do a lot of standing when riding.The review is still out but the seat is off to a great start.

My bike came with a Prologo Kappa Pas saddle. The Koobi Century is firmer, but somehow more comfortable on long rides. It's like a soft bed vs firm bed - softer is not necessarily better. The Koobi has comfort and support, without being too hard or too soft. It's hard to put into words. You'll have to ride one to experience it for yourself!

I have riden my PRS Century for around 3 years now, I've been very happy with it. The greatest compliment I can give it is that I never think about it! Of all the components on my bike, this saddle never enters my mind. I've riden centuries, tri's, and lots of training rides; this saddle has performed well at all of them, and held up better than other saddles I've had. It came set up w/the red elastomers, they seem to work well for me at 6'3" and 180lbs.

I purchased my PRS Century after consultation with the Koobi staff with regard to a developing E.D. problem I was experiencing with the saddle supplied on my harsh riding aluminium framed road bicycle. I chose the PRS Century because of the in-built suspension elastomers and the cut-out design. The PRS Century was completely successful with regard to the harsh ride of my bike but far less successful with the E.D. problem. I persisted with the PRS Century for many months all the while seeking medical cures for my cycling related health issues until I reached a point that I could no longer continue to ride. I also tried several unconventional saddles at this time with no success. Eventually I walked into a shop with the intention of buying new nicks to replace my old ones, worth a try I thought, the salesman listened with interest and then lent me his own firm, flat and hard conventional saddle to try. It was instant success, my E.D. problem disappeared completely, this saddle was quite expensive but with its titanium rails provided a ride equivalent to the PRS without the health issues. I can only conclude that the soft gel in the PRS is incompatible with my physiology and the somewhat sharp edges along the cutout also aggravated the nerves and blood vessels in the perennial area. The PRS Century while providing a smooth ride at a reasonable price failed to address the E.D. problem that I purchased it for.

I bought the PRS Century a few months after I got my first real road bike and as I was prepping for my first 2-day 150-mile charity ride. The seat arrived two days before a 50-mile training ride. I put it on, though nervously because of my uncertainty that it would be comfortable the first time out. Five miles into the training ride I had no more trepidation. Fifty miles later I was the happiest bike rider on the ride. On this seat I don't slide, and at the end of the ride I don't have to stand up just to get butt relief. Oh, did I mention that I'm big guy? So putting all my weight onto the few square inches of any seat can be threatening, but with the PRS Century, it is a welcoming experience.
