Personally, I think memory foam kicks gel pads azz over all. I use to not offer gel pads till I found the ones I use and they are actually made specifically for me and to my knowledge no one else has anything even remotely close to it. I do not offer gel pads alone though, memory foam goes over everything we offer with the exception of the riders choice and extreme modifications.
badx,
if i do anything to the seat , i'm not looking to raise the height. i like sitting in the bike rather than on top. that might be talking out of both sides of my mouth, but you get my jest. speaking from gw experience, i'm looking for that cadillac ride. is that feasible, just by adding you special touches?

I personally like the sitting "IN" the bike instead of on the bike feel also. Depending on your height and weight going lower usually is not a problem.
