    The REI Member Dividend

    The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

    Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

    Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

    Questions? Call us at 1-800-426-4840 for more about your dividend or its redemption.

        Comments about Wilderness Trail Bikes Pure V Saddle - Men's:

        I've gone thru a few seats and this is the first one that I love. Not a huge fan of the graphics on it, but the dropped nose & wider tail make it extremely comfortable for me.

        I find the padding just right. A little flex without too much give.

        I replaced the factory seat on my Specialized MTB with this saddle and couldn't be happier. Just the right amount of cushion too keep you comfortable yet sturdy enough to hold you in your seat. Good seat!

          Comments about Wilderness Trail Bikes Pure V Saddle - Men's:

          I tried this saddle starting last year on my commuter bike, it has since found a place on all of my bikes from my carbon mtb to my cyclocross trainer. I like the shape, the "love channel" prevents pinching and pressure where it counts. I like the slight upsweep at the back where I can push back with my tail to take pressure off of other parts of the saddle. It may not be the lightest saddle, but it is very comfortable with mid-level weight. It's even more comfortable then the big ole gel saddle I threw on my indoor training bike.

          Comments about Wilderness Trail Bikes Pure V Saddle - Men's:

          Great looking seat. Felt harder than I have on the bike but wanted something I didn't feel like I was sliding off of. Perhaps is was the way I had it configured or use, but was too uncomfortable. Shot pains down my legs. I rode it for 2 - 16 mile rides and had to replace. I am trying a softer seat. We'll see how that goes.
