Strengths: Flatter profile, wider tail to support sit bones correctly, lightweight (195 gm) high quality.Weaknesses: None. I'll be getting another after this one wears out.Bottom Line: First off, a saddle is a very personal fit and choice and every person's fit will be different, but I really like how this saddle fits me. I'm 6-2", 180 lbs, and have tried many race saddles and this one is really nice. When you first sit on it, you think it's a little hard due to minimal padding, but after 5 min of riding, you realize you're sitting correctly on your sit bones and not your perineum area causing discomfort and numbness. After 2-3 hrs, I can still feel comfortable on it, unlike some of my previous saddles. The design is very smart, high quality, and functional. With the shorter nose length it gives me more room for sprinting and makes the transition for climbing really easy.

Bottom Line: For some reason WTB saddles fit me. I am 6' 185lbs. In the past I have had a hard time finding saddles that I like. I bought a WTB saddle (Rocket V) for my mountain bike and love it. So I decided to try the Devo for my road bike.

Strengths: Doesn't hurt my butt after long rides. Soft, but not bulky. Would own another if WTB's R&D department would find a way to improve the wear and tear of the sasddle.Weaknesses: Falling apart by the ride.Bottom Line: Love the saddle. I use it for mountain biking, but would love to have one on my road bike, too. I can hardly tell I am even sitting on a scrawny saddle, it feels during long rides and doesn't bother my butt, etc. Here's my problem: it's an expensive saddle and after 2 weeks of use it looked like I had left it in a lake then took it out and beat it with a hammer. It looks like it has 3 owners over 5 years. Still, it functions just as good. I called WTB and they told me to send it back and they would send me a new one. Ok, fair enough, then what saddle am I supposed to put on my mountain bike while I wait for my new one?
