- Has aged very well
- Very low profile
- Narrow and long
- Firm and comfortable
Cons: - As stated in other reviews the lettering does rub off quickly.
Recommendation: I love this saddle! I have been riding on this saddle for 4 years almost year round in the most inclement weather on the most technical double/single track throughout New England most in southern NH. This saddle is still without a tear or week spot. The lettering has worn off, but it is still soft and solid. This seat was first deemed "the nut cruncher" until I dipped the nose down a bit and now it is the most comfortable.
This saddle offers many different riding positions with its length allowing you to scoot up for climbs and hang over the back of on DHs.
