RYET TR03
Saddle
- Great comfort compared to 2 cheaper "3d-printed" style saddles I tried.
- very grippy, so less sliding on it, which is like
- Also suitable for "heavier" riders (85kg), other 3d-printed were too soft and you always sat on the cover underneath
- Note: My seatpost (EC90) has one screw that needs to be tightened from above, I could fit my hex key through the mesh and did not break anything, as the mesh is made of elastic/gummy material
