"I've been swapping saddles for over a year, trying to find something that works for me. This one has finally put an end to numbness. I'm soooooo happy."matt3liv
Ease of use
No brainer, sit on it.
Quality of Construction
So far, it appears to be well built. Time will tell, as I suspect the cover material will wear faster than a more expensive model.
Fit
This is the entire reason I'm reviewing this product. The fit is great. This is the first road or tri saddle that I've used that truly works for me. I've only been on it a couple times, but the first time I sat on it, I knew it was right. That's what we all are looking for, right?
Comfort
Perfect for me. Generous cutout with a supportive, yet low density foam pad.
Durability
So far, fine, but time will tell. I haven't used it very long.
Value
Are you kidding? It was $20. Who can ever find a great fitting saddle for $20. I went back to Nashbar to order two more this weekend and they are now $46, on sale from $55. I wish I would have bought more when it was cheap. I'm going to keep my eye on them for this end of the season and see if I can pick up a spare or two. As it is, I'll be swapping between my roadie and my try bike this season.
Appearance
Looks fine. All black, except for a small patch or reflective material on the back. No badging or embroidery.
Performance
Excellent so far. I have about 50 miles on it, and no complaints.
Strengths
Fit, value
Weakness
None that I see so far.
