$80.00 | | Purchased At: | Nashbar | | Strengths: | Very high quality materials and workmanship. Very light weight. | | Weaknesses: | Doesn't fit my butt. | | Similar Products Used: | Terrys, Specialized, Selle Italia, WTB, Serfas, | | Bike Setup: | Blur "Classic", Cane Creek wheels, AMP seat post, Shimano | | Bottom Line: | Nice saddle that I have tried to like but it just doesn't fit my sit bones. Ridden it twice and it just isn't getting any better.
If you want to buy one cheap, I'm selling mine. I still have the box. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

$85.00 | | Purchased At: | nashbar.com | | Strengths: | Fairly light. Looks cool. Well designed. | | Weaknesses: | Needs a little breaking in. | | Similar Products Used: | Several...Specialized,Forte | | Bottom Line: | Had to reposition the seat a couple of times to get it right but now that's set, I'm lovin' it. Perfect pressure points on the glutimus maximus and you set your johnnies in the open channel. Had my reservations at first but it's good to go. I may have got it cheaper than listed b/c I almost alway have a 10-15% discount with Nashbar. I hear about the gelaround and may give it a shot on my other bike. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

$30.00 | | Purchased At: | Nashbar.com | | Strengths: | After the first ride this saddle formed so well I figured my wife would be mad. If ya know what I'm sayin'? It holds you comfortably on serious singletrack. It's so light I dropped a full pound off my ride. I can ride all day and all night with this leather. And...the colors available make it easy to match to your scheme. | | Weaknesses: | It looks fancier than I'd like. But, whado I care about looks. | | Bike Setup: | Shimano Altus Crank Set

$70.00 | | Purchased At: | The Pedal Shop | | Strengths: | Nice Saddle after you break it in. Cuts down on the numbness. | | Weaknesses: | Breaking it in can be a pain, but is that really a weakness? | | Similar Products Used: | Trek ATB, Selle Italia Pro-Link & others | | Bike Setup: | Trek 4900 w/ XT/XTR group, Cane Creek WAM Ti Crono wheels, RS DUKE XC, & Eggbeaters. | | Bottom Line: | I really like this saddle. The only thing that I might regret is not getting the gel-a-round model. Great saddle to do some distance riding. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

Date Reviewed: January 7, 2003 | | Duration Product Used: | 3 months | | Purchased At: | KSH | | Strengths: | Looks great, hole in center really works not just there for show. VERY comfortable esp long rides or offroads. Lightweight. | | Weaknesses: | none | | Similar Products Used: | Giant original saddle | | Bike Setup: | XTC Giant | | Bottom Line: | Suprisingly comfortable I tot with the pathetic amount of cushion I was really gonna suffer on off roads but it turns out much more comfortable than my original Giant saddle. I would recommend anyone to upgrade to this comfy and if given a chance I would buy them again. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |
