Ascent Bicycle Anmeldelser 68

I ordered their seat 11 days ago now. Their tracking system shows package awaiting shipment. Multiple emails to them about it come back with same canned response , “sometimes it just takes a long time”. They couldn’t even get my name right. Don’t know if it’s a good seat or not, but hopefully I’ll someday get the seat or my money back.

I ordered 2 seats. One was way too large so I asked for an exchange. They don’t do that. They said I have to send the seat back at my expense… TO SWEDEN! The 30 day satisfaction guarantee is bogus.
They offered me 15% then 25% off on my order. That is where I am. Buyer beware.

The saddle is comfortable, I've taken 5 rides on it, it is a bit limiting in terms of ability to move it forward or backward on the seat post as well as angling up or down compared to other saddles I've had but overall its good.

I received my new saddle, installed it, and immediately hit the Trinity Trail — what a difference it made. I’ve tried several saddles over the years, and this one completely transformed my ride. The pain is gone, and the whole experience is so much better. I’m genuinely thrilled I made the switch.
Thank you, Ascent Bicycle!

The Ascent seat was a big improvement but I am still trying to get it dialed into the perfect position.

This new saddle is no better than other ones that I have. I feel like I’ve been victim of a hype on the iPhone. I’ve tried it out properly and it really is nothing special at all.

The Ascent saddle was comfortable right away. I did a little adjustment and went for a short ride then when I got back I did a little more adjusting and it is great. Looking forward to my next longer ride.

I was able to stay in the drops on my road bike for longer. The aero gains by staying in the drops longer far outweigh any weight penalty compared to my last saddle. I haven’t done any rides over 50 miles yet but I’m confident that they will be more comfortable.

I ordered the saddle and received it shortly after. Unfortunately it had a small tear on the front of the seat. I wrote to customer service and within a week they sent me a replacement. I put the seat on the bike and wow it really is the most comfortable saddle I have ever had. Kudos to you on your customer service and the quality of your product.

Early days - but...
It's early days as I've only been out on a short 25 mile outing, but first impressions are "finally"! I've finally found a saddle that is along for the ride, rather than (adversely) defining the ride! And if so, then this is a 5-star review. Hurrah!
As a bonus - the service/purchase from Ascent was first class.

The quality of the Comfort+ bike saddle in terms of materials and manufacturing is very good, surprisingly for the price. I had a lot of questions and Emma in Customer Support was outstanding. Emma was very quick to respond to my questions over many emails. I wish more companies had this quality of expertise and responsiveness. The Comfort+ is easy to install and well made. All in all a delightful experience working with Emma and Ascent. Highly recommended.

Not being asked how I like it when I haven’t received it yet was not necessary. It is your business. We have it and put it in the back of a tandem and it seems good! I have to laugh that it turns out my husband had bought one too so now we have tooooo many saddles AND too many bikes (and guitars) but Bikes Around the World donations day is a spring thing.

I am of a "Mature" Age, over 70 with back and hip problems.
I am using an Ascent Sport and its the most comfortable I have found.
I now do not get Hip Pain after a ride.
Its great, I have an Ascent 2 for my wife to use also.

Took it out on vacation before trying it out! I loved it! Very comfortable, great fit, no crazy sore spots! I believe y’all nailed it!

I want to express how grateful I am to find this product. I have ridden on various saddles, and found this to be the most comfortable. I also found it is the best bang for your money.

Sometimes when a saddle feels uncomfortable, I think it's something I'm doing wrong, not angling front-to-back correctly, not lubricating enough, maybe I should just stick with recumbents, etc. But I like my Bike Friday and Brompton bikes! When I saw the ad for the Ascent saddle, I thought: give it a try. When I first sat on it, it felt good, but I didn't want to judge too soon. So, after a couple of weeks, with rides ranging from 10 to 25 miles, my opinion: this is a great, comfortable saddle! If your butt feels sore, it might not be your fault. Give this Ascent saddle a try!

Great purchase. After a couple of rides achieved a 60 mile ride without the numbness. Great value too.

20 miles used to be me butt limit. Now my legs give out before my butt. Love exploring twice as far.

From the very start, the communication was fantastic. Shipping was prompt. Shortly after receiving my seat I received an e-mail, not a survey but an e-mail asking how I liked it. I told them the weather had made it impossible to try. This person then commented on the weather and wished for bluer skies in the future. This was a person! I asked then for pointers on the starting set-up and again, right back with suggestions. I finally got to try my new seat and I couldn't be happier! What a great product offered by a wonderful team!! Thank You!

Easy to order and delivery was quick. I love the softness and comfort of the seat.
