Strengths: it seems well madeWeaknesses: it makes me NUMB. OuchBottom Line: After about 45 minutes, this saddle makes me extremely numb in the family jewels. If you want to ride for 20 minutes at a time, then i suppose it will work fine. It didnt work for me.
Favorite Ride: around the bay

Strengths: Pretty good weight, looks goodWeaknesses: Hurts my knees, quads, glutes, and the area in between my sit bones! Numbness and soreness for a day or more after riding.Bottom Line: Okay, I recently got back into road riding, and I got this saddle a while back, but just started riding it. I don't recommend it at all! I'm 6'1ish, 160lb, and after 3-4 miles it kills me! By the end of the ride I'm numb, which is more bearable than the pain I get at first, but I hate to think what's happening to my anatomy in the process. I can't take it! There's probably someone out there who could handle this saddle, but not me. I'm getting a selle italia Prolink.
Favorite Ride: anywhere, litter and stupid drivers avoided when possible

Bike Setup: Brew (brewracingframes.com) steel custom with Easton EC70 carbon fork, rolf vector wheels, and ultegra/dura ace components.

Strengths: gelWeaknesses: shape. Support areaBottom Line: Qualifier: Body's are different. This seat may be perfect for some, but not me.
Nose on this seat too wide for me. Trying to upgrade from stock Fuji. I noticed I was more comfortable in the place the old seat supported me, but this one supported as if sloped upward front to back. The right slope for the nose would have had to have been quite positive for the seat to feel more flat under the *ss bone. I had it for about 300 miles and had soreness down the back of my legs just below the glutes, putting hamstrings in pain as well. It was as if more muscle tissue was being crushed.
Now I can see why hard seats, supporting in the right spot can be better than larger softer ones that can interfere with the movement of the inside of the thighs and not be supportive in the right way, once again, for this reviewer.

Strengths: it came with my bike free and it looks cool.Weaknesses: it ruined my sex life.Bottom Line: OOOOWWWWW!!! OW.seriously. ow! i could feel my special guy poppin back and forth on the saddle thru the whole ride. i finally stood up and dealt with the pain when i got home. its the manganese rail "nitrox" version. but anyway.. ow. i cant ride it due to male-ness, so i cant give it a good rating. the saddle is too hard to flex, and too slim to rest my butt on. it ends up hiding away in my g-string zone. so.. it sucks.

Strengths: Fits my anatomy well. Not too expensive. Not too heavy.Weaknesses: Very firm, even with the gel inserts and Ti rails. Shape might not be for everyone. I'll ding the rating one star for it being so firm.Bottom Line: I switched to this saddle when my Terry Fly gave up the ghost. I tried a Fizik Pave which was a terrible fit for my shape. The Selle is much better. The saddle is certainly not plush, but it fits my anatomy just fine and works for me.
Favorite Ride: downhill with a tailwind and no cars
