Purchased At:
Bluesky
Strengths:
This is a solid, good looking sturdy seat. Not too fat and not too slender. Dirt wipes off easily. Niiiice color(urban camo)
Weaknesses:
Wouldn't recommend for straight FR/DH use, as it's intented for both(Not a large seat). Not the most comfy
Similar Products Used:
WTB Laser
Bike Setup:
Gemini
Bottom Line:
I bought the seat to replace my stock WTB, which was creaking something terrible. I was a bit hesitant to purchase online because the sites that it was sold on had intended this saddle for dh/fr use, but it didn't look as big as the others made by FUNN. Also, I didn't want a big honkin seat that was the size of a cinder block since I ride more AM than anything else. Needless to say, I ordered the seat and was very happy when I opened the box. Perfect size and serves it purpose well(also looks fantastic).

Strengths:
strong, crash-proof, amazing looks, comfortable, manages to look brand-new after serious use and abuse, snow camo = hotness, affordable
Weaknesses:
if everyone finds out that this saddle rocks, then i won't feel nearly as cool
Similar Products Used:
a bunch of saddles, all that teared/broke or somehow disintergrated after a series of crashes
Bike Setup:
SC VP-Free and Kona Stuff
Bottom Line:
The bottom line is that I think this saddle is the best out there. I've tried a bunch and have been truly happy with this saddle's preformance over the last 10 months or so. I actually just ordered a second one for my new bike that i'm building!! Won't use any other saddle. Makes my ride look even sicker.
