from St.pete , Fl, Date Reviewed: March 29, 2002 Strengths: The seat keeps my package happy. I ride to be happy. I have been using the seat scince they first came out with it and I could afford it. The 1.5in foam padding in soft for my 300 lb A$$. It has takin a beating and is still fine for the wear. It has survived big crashes and yard sales. Weaknesses: It takes a few rides to find your spot. Too far up and your boys get sqeezed(that may be a positive for you)too far back and your balance is off. The rails could be longer for better positioning, however,this is an old model. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Uranium Road, Jim Thorpe PA Duration Product Used: More than 3 years Price Paid: $40.00 Purchased At: WV Bike Shop Similar Products Used: This was my first split seat and it has not failed me yet.

Bomber and XTcranks, 1000lb spring.

from Melbourne, Australia Date Reviewed: June 5, 2001 Strengths: Very comfortable if you ride it in the sweet spot Weaknesses: This saddle has a very pronounced sweet spot. If you ride towards the back of the saddle it can be very comfortable, but if you ride the nose of the saddle a fair bit, as I tend to do, it's torture. The rails have very little flex, the shell is very rigid, and the padding soft, with the result that if you sit further forward, the hard shell soon starts digging in to your perineum, and numbness quickly follows. This may be an indictment of my riding style, but I would have thought that Specialized could design a seat that could be ridden comfortably in any position. It's also a very heavy saddle, and the construction quality is not the best Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: 1 Year Similar Products Used: SDG Comp Bel-Air, WTB Speed V
