Bottom Line:
Got the saddle as a christmas gift, on the forth time off road the left rail came out of the housing in the back of the saddle, also bending the right rail. I'm over 200 lbs but have ridden hundreds of miles off road without damaging a saddle, oh well back to my 10 year old serfa

Strengths:
Comfy when seat, back flange is great for downhill,
Weaknesses:
Hard nose, not good for long technical climbing
Similar Products Used:
several WTB's
Bike Setup:
Commencal 5.2
Bottom Line:
I love this saddle whether fast padeling or going downhill, the back flange made me aware of where the saddle is so I won't get caught or miss it when moving around on downhill. The only complain is the nose is unbearablly hard, if you tend to seat on the tip for steep climbing your ball will be numb.

Looks cool, red/black leather combo. Not too heavy...

After toughing it out on this thing for 3 years, I am researching new options. The "numb" starts in 5 minutes into every ride. Looks cool, but just not suited for those with family jewels..

Strengths:
A good quality, good looking saddle that does what it should. Nice & comfy without being too big. Still looks almost as new.
Weaknesses:
Weight but even that's not too bad.
Similar Products Used:

Bike Setup:
Kona Cindercone (95) with added disc mounts, 2001 Judy Races, XT running gear.
Bottom Line:
I like a bit of padding under my nads. This saddle is one of the best I have ever used. The cromo is not much heavier than the Ti but cost me less than half the price.
