Purchased: 2024-05-09

I've been testing this one

(The normal padded one)

For a few weeks now and it's been super comfy in a very aggressive racing position. Actually surprising how comfy it is for how little padding there is compared to my old fizik saddle. The rails feel solid and everything. It's not the most lightweight at around 150g but it feels much better than those extremely lightweight ones at 100g-ish.

00:08:59
