 Best saddle I've tried yet. |
| Review Date: July 2, 2010 |
| Reviewer: Bjarne Haug, New Orleans |
| I think its a saddle that might not fit anyone, I'm not slim and totally fit, and weigh 193 lbs, but I have used many saddles that last 20 years, and this is by far the most comfortable saddle I've tried. Usually I get a bad "rear-end" after an hour ride on a new saddle and this hasn't happened yet from this one. I use it on my MTB and really give it something to work with and it's doing what I need. I'm surprised. |
Light but numbing...

| Reviewer: Anthony R. Clarke, |
| The light weight made this an attractive saddle but the comfort it provides is not at all worth the weight savings. After only 30-40 minutes on the bike I lose sensation and feeling and am forced to stand up every few minutes to ensure enough blood is flowing to my future generations. The lack of a cutout concentrates a lot of the pressure in all the wrong places. I've ridden about 500 miles on the saddle hoping it would break in and soften up but to no avail. It's difficult to base saddle purchases on other peoples reviews as everyone fits a saddle differently, but this is one person that this saddle certainly did not fit. |
