Default Lepera solo with gel?

I have read all over that the lepera solo seat isnt too comfy. Does anybody have the seat with the gel in it?
i know it is more expensive, but did anybody pay that extra price and get the gel?

I have also heard that after a while, the gel hardens up and isnt as comfortable as it should be?

any info on this ??

I've heard basically the same thing. The gel pad is a pretty thin piece (if you've ever been to those sites that can add gel to your seat). Some say it makes a difference... I couldn't justify the price difference.
I elected to not get it in my Bare Bones LT. Longest trip I've taken is 150 miles at a time and I really couldn't complain. It really wasn't much difference from the Badlander seat I had on earlier. However that's a pretty slim seat too.

I have a barebone LT with gel but I can't compare it too the one without because I don't have one. Also I've never herd of gel hardening up.
