Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The stoker loves the extra padding. This feels like i'm riding a slender racing saddle, but with much more comfort. I like the fact that it's a bit more slippery than some other saddles.

Perfect for my french bike. This was recommended. Bonus, it just looks prettier on the bike.

Great, comfortable and lasting seat. Very comfortable and supportive, selle italia are one of the best made saddles.

The seat is well padded, but also small enough that i don't get chafing inside the leg area. I am an older man who has been a cyclist for over 50 years.



Cons

The worst part is the saddle made my coccyx (tailbone) sore. The channel is very narrow and feels non-existent. Greasing the rails and seat clamp didn't help.

    It is not too padded as some people seem to think is good

    But if you have too much padding you will be sliding around in the saddle and sores are next

    I changed saddles always looking for something better but i am back as this is the saddle for me
