Review on Black Velo Elastomer Bike Saddle, 264x220mm by Michael Vargas

Revainrating 3 out of 5

DO NOT BUY if you are of average build.

WARNING, it is well made and may fit you IF you are taller than average. I am a 5ft 10ft 165lb male with a 32 inch waist which I have never found to be small. Anyway, I'm boringly average build, neither skinny nor fat, and I'm reasonably fit. This seat is too wide for my legs to spread my legs without chafing my inner thighs. As a result, I tend to slide forward in the seat until it becomes snug enough to "circle" my legs. It puts pressure on my perineum. and effectively kills the purpose of the wide seat. DO NOT BUY if you are average. If you're 6ft 2in, 40in waist and 220lbs, do it!

Pros
  • An absolute legend
Cons
