Strengths:    It is Very low weight, Strong structure, does not flex or makes strange noises, Super nice looks and the leather is soft but sturdy. I think in black with white accents looks better and last longer.

Weaknesses:    It is not a weakness, but the new carbon oversized rails are not compatible with older Bontrager carbon Seat post clamps. Be very careful, if you use the wrong clamp you may damage your saddle rails or even may be injured

Bottom Line:   
The most comfortable and best saddle I`ve ever have. Is very good for a race or for a long ride

Strengths:    This saddle looks awesome and is very light. I have only had it for a couple of weeks and the fit is great. I am using it with a Thompson seat post and the oversize rails work good with the Thompson.

Weaknesses:    Cost is high. It is stiff but is a XC saddle. May need different seat post or adapter for the oversize rails.

Bottom Line:   
Overall a good lightweight saddle with good looks.
