Submitted by bgfthntr a Cross Country Rider from ADK, upstate NY
Date Reviewed: October 23, 2009
Favorite Trail:Spier Falls
Duration Product Used:Less than 1 month
Price Paid: $90.00
Strengths:Well made, technology filled, thought out design, 2 sizes available
Weaknesses:Hard and too square (for me)
Similar Products Used:Flite, Prolink, Spec. Stock Saddle, Concor
Bike Setup:FSR XC
Bottom Line:This is a well made saddle, The gel nose is fantastic and was for climbing very technical steep sections. For me the saddle didn't not fit me very well. I had the 143mm and I need a bit wider. I would recommend giving this saddle a try but it didn't work for me. It's more of a racer setup.

Submitted by Spokaned a Cross Country Rider from Spokane
Date Reviewed: September 13, 2009
Favorite Trail:Wa.
Duration Product Used:6 months
Price Paid: $100.00
Purchased At:Wheelsport
Strengths:Great for seated riding and climbing in the saddle. Wide front-end is great for steep climbs. Seat softens-up after a few rides. Go with the Cro/Mo rails (tougher with hardly any weight penalty) as compared to the Ti.
Weaknesses:None so far.
Similar Products Used:WTB Rocket V Ti.
Bike Setup:08' Specialized Enduro SL Pro Carbon.
Bottom Line:Great seat with the versatility for climbing, cruising the flats, or technical riding.
Value Rating:4Overall Rating:5
