Date Reviewed: March 22, 2007
Favorite Trail:Knapps
Duration Product Used:1 Year
Price Paid: $44.00
Purchased At:Cambria Bike
Strengths:Very light. the dropped nose helps prevent shorts from catching. sturdy and well built, leather is very good quality.
Weaknesses:Uncomfortable for long rides. Narrow profile might not fit well with most people.
Similar Products Used:Titec Berzerker Ti, Titec Amore Ithys Ti
Bike Setup:6.6, 66, K24
Bottom Line:A great 4x/MTX racing saddle, its greatest 'assets' are it's strength, durability and very light weight. Pricewise it's a good deal, but be warned, it's not the type of saddle to use on 1+ hour deathmarch climbs.

Submitted by Jason Smith a Weekend Warrior from Woodstock, GA, USA
Date Reviewed: March 17, 2007
Favorite Trail:blankets creek
Duration Product Used:Less than 1 month
Purchased At:Roswell Bike
Strengths:*Came stock on my bike so thats why i put $0 for price.*
First off, saddles are a personal taste item but i can tell you that ive tried other WTB saddles and while this one is smaller with less padding it is still extremely comfortable. ive recently done rides of 21, 14, and 16 miles on it and never noticed it was there which is the best compliment i can give a saddle.
Weaknesses:none so far for me, may be to narrow for other's liking
Similar Products Used:all kinds of WTBs and on Selle Italia Gel
Bike Setup:Stock Giant Anthem 3
Bottom Line:nice lightweight race oriented saddle that still has adequate comfort for all day rides. i love it

Submitted by Spoook a Cross Country Rider from McKinney, TX
Date Reviewed: February 5, 2007
Duration Product Used:3 months
Price Paid: $50.00
Purchased At:jensonusa.com
Strengths:light weight
Weaknesses:too narrow
Similar Products Used:SDG Bel Air - Selle Italia X/O - other misc.
Bottom Line:Bought this saddle to have a light saddle that was fairly comfortable. This saddle is a little to narrow for my tatse. Padding is thin, but I don't need a lot of padding. Opt for the wider Rocket V saddle, as I think it's a little better. Bottom line, I can't ride this saddle for more than a couple hours.
