Bike: mtb

Had a Gobi, crushed nerves and veins. Went for a bull vs, not any better. Now on a Antares but it seems it is not going to be any better.

Road - Roman Evo - change my riding like you wouldn't believe.

 

Road - Power Expert - stil testing. On the IDT it works like a charm but bad experience on the road. Will give it another go.

MTB 

Sele itallia SLR kit carbono

Love it. Hard but comfortable, super light (125g), been riding it on mtb for about 5 or 6 years both hard tail and dual sus, so its plenty strong enough.

MTB 
Gobi XM for last 4 years or so....
Bought saddle second hand, eventually cracked it. Fizik replaced it at no charge (even though I had no sales slip etc)

Tried many.

Only saddles which work for me are Rolls on both bikes.

By far the best IMHO.

Would like a B17 though.

eish is right!!

Probably the most uncomfortable saddle I have ever put my ass on aside from the Selle Q-bik.

Me too.

Gave my new one to Frail.  See he does not ride it either.

MTB: fizik arione tri 2 

Road: fizik arione tri 2

 

not the lightest but that extra cushion in the front is great.

Edit: the worst saddle I've ever ridden on is the stock giant connect saddle my MTB came with, one 20km ride at it landed in the bin
