Cannondale Prophet 1000 Custom Build. Magura martas, Manitou 3Way. Lefty SPV, truvativ stylo cranks, x-7 shifters and x-9 rear D.
Bottom Line:
This is a good saddle for the money. It has been comfortable and has served me well. I am now looking to save some weight on my bike so i will be upgrading it to something sporty and lighter.
I have had a couple of offs with this bike and the saddle has never let me down nor has it teared. It does have some marks from wear, as well as a few scuff marks from the crashes.
It could be a little lighter and a little thinner, but i geus it would not be as comfortable.
4 chillies for value, and 4 overall.
