Bottom Line:
I was ridding on campus and dropped a set of 4 stairs and the seat broke in half, resulting in my back side landing on the tire and then getting launched into the broken front half of the seat.... it hurt. Although it is comfortable, it seemed that it was made really poor quality materials.
