Nothing negative. the best saddles

I have used this saddle on my track/velodrome bike for six months during fluid training. I am 175 cm tall and weigh 72 kg. My riding position is pretty aggressive on the drops. My average time in the saddle during training is around 1.25 hours. I installed the saddle and made the initial adjustments to suit my sit bones and riding style for which I like a zero incline (level) setup. This saddle works great with no noticeable squeak like some carbon rail saddles do. It was comfortable for rides up to 2 hours at an average cadence of 75 rpm. I've also used this saddle with up to a 130 rpm cadence in freewheel to work on leg speed. No problems with inner thigh chafing or post riding pain. I bought this as a cheap test saddle to see if I needed carbon rails before buying an ultralight saddle. That being said I intend to use this saddle on my track bike indefinitely and will buy it again without reservation. If you are heavier or use a more upright seat I would suggest you buy a different saddle. The very minimal padding and narrow design probably won't work for you either. Also, I use this specifically for a bike that rides very slick trails, so I can't confirm the comfort compared to other surfaces. I didn't expect this saddle to please because of the price. I figured it would break or squeak loudly or irritate or hurt the saddle or something. But I haven't heard anything negative about this saddle so far.

Pros
  • Polyurethane and high quality EVA padding for exceptional comfort and pain-free cycling. Realize your full potential in a saddle that can keep up with your strongest results. It has excellent impact resistance and maximum rigidity.
Cons
  • Vulgarity
