Strengths:
**This review is for the 04 BG2 MTB Pro Womens Saddle** Quality workmanship. Just the right amount of padding. A serious women's saddle. The cutout is perfect with enough padding so the cutout itself isn't causing pressure. 146mm width sufficient for XC riding.
Weaknesses:
At 320 grams I don't think its the lightest in its class of race saddles. None other as of yet.

Bike Setup:
98' Specialized Stumpjumper, 98 Judy XC, Frog pedals, LX/XT components. 99' Cannondale Mountain Tandem, Crap CODA components being upgraded as they wear out, Crap suspension post, Frog pedals (best component on the tandem :). Love this thing though. Cannondale Moto Fork.
Bottom Line:
This saddle has been quite the relief in more ways than one. I absolutely cannot ride a saddle w/o a cutout, but both my flites, were extremely painful.
The second I got on this thing it was like, "ahhhhhh." I rode 25 miles today and was feeling fantastic. Nice to finally be pain and numbness free. I think this body geometry stuff is for real.
At $80 the price aint bad for a Ti' Rail saddle.
