Strengths: "Painless" is the word that comes to mind when riding on this saddle !! I have tried the highly regarded Fly but just plain did not like it. I guess what they say about saddles being a very personal choice is correct.Weaknesses: None.Bottom Line: Give this saddle a try if you think you can't find one that fits you well.

Strengths: Comfort, comfort, comfortWeaknesses: Weight is about 350 grams, but well worth the penaltyBottom Line: Damned! Believe the hype. I know any single product, especially saddles, will not satisfy everyone, but this has to be close. I'm not saying this is like a LazyBoy, but it does all a good saddle should do without numbness or unreasonable discomfort. I am sold. Now I want another for the road.
PS: my model has the "Genuine Gel" and steel rails.

Strengths: Looks great, elastomer suspension works, durability.Weaknesses: Price, hard to find these days.Bottom Line: This is an extremely comfortable and durable saddle. I agree that it takes a little while (30-50miles) to get used to, but after it breaks in it is like no other, it is so comfortable, by far the most comfortable saddle ever. Those elastomers really works. I have on my road bike ,the same one but with gel, but the one without gel is more comfortable and lighter. Great product in every aspect.
Favorite Trail: anything over 40 miles

Strengths: Very well manufactured, damping system keeps away vibrations, nice leather cover, comfortable in a quite upright positionWeaknesses: Quite heavy (if you are interested in weight), expansive
It didn´t fit the riding position on my steel-bike. The saddle is quite high and the handlebar very flat.
I mounted it on my city-bike (an older modified touring-bike) and it fitted perfectly, because the riding position is more upright.Bottom Line: A really nice, good saddle. But it seems not to be really comfortable if your riding position is too flat.
