"If you are having problems with saddle discomfort, consider this saddle. I would have never believed something so thin would be so comfortable. Now I've got to buy one for my road bike."mman

Quality of Construction

Solid construction. seems well made.

Comfort

This is the most comfortable saddle I've ever ridden on. It came on my new tri bike, even though its a road saddle (retail for saddle only is $170). The saddle looks like a weapon - very thin. But, the sides flex giving it a soft feel. The saddle on my road bike is heavily padded with a cutout, but is not nearly as comfortable as this saddle. Even in my most uncomfortable bike shorts, I never had any discomfort in the saddle. Also, the saddle comes in a variety of widths (2 or 3) to accomodate the riders sit bones. This way the bones are carrying the body weight and not the soft tissues.
