"This saddle looks and appears like a great saddle. I really wanted it to work for me. Unfortunately, my position on the bike is very aero aggressive and for me this saddle placed all of my weight on the outer groin and scrotum. I had over 200 miles on this saddle, trying to give it an honest try. It became so uncomfortable that I began to loathe the thought of even getting on the bike; which happens to be my favorite aspect of triathlon. I truly wish it had worked for me but I just couldn't stand the pain it was causing any longer.
In my humble opinion, for those with less aggressive riding positions, especially road bike riders, this saddle should work quite well. Also, for females with any riding position, this saddle seems like it would work well. (albeit I'm a male but females don't have scrotums to get in the way so...should be great!)"Dave 2.0
Ease of use
For me it didn't work; I never found a comfortable position on it, even after tweeking it around.
Quality of Construction
It's definitely a quality product.
Fit
Didn't work for me at all...It did, however, relieve the numbness issues that I had, but that was traded for other discomfort.
Comfort
Wasn't comfy for me at all! It put more pressure on the lateral perineal area (outer groin) and scrotum...ouch not very comfortable at all.
Adjustability
Just like any other saddle
Durability
Seems very durable.
Value
If it had worked yes it would've been a great value.
Appearance
Great looking saddle...really loved the appearance.
Customer Service
I've heard great things about this company's customer service...I didn't personally have any experience with them because the saddle was just too painful and I truly don't believe there was anything in the world that could've made this saddle more comfortable for me.
Performance
See above
Strengths
Looks great! As promised, removes the numbness issues.
Weakness
Trades the numbness for discomfort in other groin areas.
