If you mean it looks like its as comfortable as a brick then you're not way off. Its (Tioga Spider) actually quite flexible but it buttoms out from time to time giving slight jolts up the spine. Cant imagine heavy riders (I'm 80 kg incl. tools cloth) loving it. That said, the shape is good and friction is not bad considering its plastic. And its 148g which is quite good for the price. After about 50-60k in the woods though I begin to feel a bit uncomfortable. I can go on no problem but the soreness becomes a factor.
And thanks!
