Default Memory Foam Saddle?


Hey, I was just wondering if anybody had ever used memory foam on their
saddle? I just got a memory foam bed and its the most comfortable thing
ever, so I think it would be really comfy. I don't know about prices or
weight, but tell me what you guys think.

I do not think memory foam would be good for saddles. You need support
off the base and memory foam would just collapse down. I have it on my
bed and it is okay there.

I have used memory foam in a saddle. I got a good sized chunk of the
foam used in mattresses from a friend of a friend's wife who worked at
a factory... you get the idea.

The foam felt super soft and was plenty thick. The problem with it, was
that when I actually sat on it, it compressed totally flat.

Do not use memory foam. I have tried it, and it sucks. You sit on it and
it compresses to nothing. When it freezes around -1C here, it turns
rock hard. Jrduegod (or something) made a custom saddle the a closed
cell foam. Find the thread and do what he did.

i was in the process of trying to get a couple samples of said memory
foam to use in a saddle, but they never actually sent it to me.
