Description:Designed for the high-performance cyclist, the SDG Ti-Fly saddle features all of the characteristics of the I-Fly, but with traditional rails. It's engineered with comfort, flex and light weight in mind. This seat flies.
An extremely light and good looking saddle, unfortunately the texture gets worn quickly. It feels very good when riding hard bumpy trails or just cruising along, it's almost feels "invisible".
Very easy to get in behind the saddle for the trickier down slopes and back up again.
For shorter rides under 2 hours this saddle is great, anything longer and you are in for alot of ass hurt. This saddle would have been perfect with a little more flex.

Saddle fitted straight on a thomson seatpost, No Problems. It feels a bit like a plank when sitting on it in the garage, but it flex's during the ride and doesn't numb the bum. Most of my rides are 1-1/2 hours at a time.

Bought this for the price and weight for my XC project bike. Was a little worried about the comfort, since its so light, but that's not an issue. Haven't done an all day ride yet, but I don't think that'll matter. Nicely finished. This is the all black leather cover one.
