Strengths:    strong rails

Weaknesses:    waek seat pan

Bottom Line:   
my favorite seat, the WTB PureV seems to have weak rails, Ive bent all models. I thought Id try the Vigo as the rails can be replaced. First seat the rear cup that the rails sit in broke, second seat just did the same. lasted a bit over 1 year each. rails are solid and did not bend, padding is a bit firmer than the Pure but compfortable. Ill probably go back to the Pure, they only last six months but they're cheap

Strengths:    Long distance comfort, looks, & padding.

Weaknesses:    I don't like the white paint accents on the black saddle

Bottom Line:   
I took a chance on this saddle and I'm really liking it. I previously rode the Laser V for many years. The Laser V was always pretty good but not perfect. When looking for a new saddle for my hardtail I knew that I wanted something with about the same width, a better shape & more padding. The Vigo fit the bill so I decided to give it a try. At first it felt slightly more square or boardy than the Laser V but after a few miles I found it disappears beneath me and does not give me sore spots or cramps like the Laser V did. The extra padding of the Vigo is nice and firm when peddling but does a great job of taking the edge off when hitting large bumps. I think that I've found my new favorite mtb saddle.

Strengths:    Most comfortable road saddle, bar none.

Weaknesses:    Bit heavy, who cares for this comfort.

Bottom Line:   
Tried them all, I have a tender butt, give up the 50 grams and find real comfort.

Strengths:    Comfortable, long, light (mine is 270g), well made.

Weaknesses:    None I have found thus the rating.

Bottom Line:   
This is a great saddle! Light and comforatable, a longer saddle with a slightly wider pedalling platform.
Very well cushioned especially for a "race" saddle.
I like a longer saddle gives me more to work with especially climbing, and is well fitted for use with an adjustable seatpost (I think a long saddle works better with my Gravity Dropper).

I'm very critical and have several saddles. I was using a Rocket V slt but never liked it! Never understoodwhy it got such acclaim.

Try the Viggo! Designed for enduro, and long distance XC racing Great all around saddle.
