Pros & Cons
Pros
This seat is incredible! Looks awesome and feels awesome too. I have it positioned on my seatpost just slightly forward on the rails. I suspect this will resolve as continue to refine the seat adjustment.

Bought this saddle as it came highly recommended for a 3070 mile ride across the usa
