Bottom Line:
This may be a great saddle for road riding, but do not buy it for your mountain bike. The rails are just too weak to stand-up to x-country riding. I do not even "free ride" or go off drops. After two weeks I bent the rails in a small G-out dip. I bought it new on e-bay, so I can't return it. For this reason, I rode it until it broke, one month later. It is comfortable, but I would stay with the Flite Ti saddle.
