Pikey Posted November 24, 2016 Share I have one on my mountain bike and last week I fell pretty hard! There is a slight scuff but it held up far better than I thought. I was worried about that first and foremost but now that it's out the way i'm very chuffed! The first steep climb I shifted my weight forward as one does and it was a real eye opener. Let's just say my saddle and I bonded a bit to much in that moment... since then a bit of a change in technique and it's been great! I can't wait for all those attachments to become available as you can run the saddle bag with a dropper post. Although then you have to have a saddle bag just buy a bandit ...no bag. Fits a 29r tube,2 bombs ,lever,and plugs and attachment. Sorted . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curbie Posted November 24, 2016 Share Not sure if this helps ...but I set all mine up like this. With the phone in the same postion (just on the gap) and on the same part of my garage floor always coz it's level. -0.2 - -0.6 is perfect.this was my setup process ... again, any advice or pointers welcome Pikey 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pikey Posted November 24, 2016 Share side view.jpglevel 1.jpg this was my setup process ... again, any advice or pointers welcomethe front looks to high ...will feel like it's pushing in mmmmm. Instead of the weight on your sitbones. Just my personal experience is when the front piece is not level is uncomfortable . bullet77 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudi Pollard Posted November 24, 2016 Share side view.jpglevel 1.jpgthis was my setup process ... again, any advice or pointers welcome The prescribed setup from specialized is to set up the nose level. This will then cause the tail to be angled which is the way it was designed. Gert Janse v Rensburg and Curbie 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raemondo Posted November 24, 2016 Share Ok who's got the loan 155 from Cedar concept store? Go give them your money and the loan saddle back pls Gert Janse v Rensburg, EmptyB, dirtypot and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmptyB Posted November 24, 2016 Share side view.jpglevel 1.jpgthis was my setup process ... again, any advice or pointers welcome I only have mine on my DS MTB. Took it for a proper set up with one of Jozi's most well renowned bike fitters. The nose is tilted slightly downwards because of the dual suss. On a road bike or hard tail, the downward tilt at the front of the saddle would be closer to level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HBO Posted November 24, 2016 Share Went for my measurement this morning (155) but they said they don't give out test saddles. They guy said that they've lost too many saddles. They are quite confident that you will buy it in any case. They didn't had any comebacks yet and looking at the reviews here, I'm confident to take the plunge. Will see if it is at a better price tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capri Wheeler Posted November 24, 2016 Share Never really had a love or any feeling towards saddles until I got a Fizik Arione. Never thought I would ever change saddles.But the bike I just bought comes with the Power and reading this thread has put my mind at ease. May report back here after I have ridden it after finding time to slip in a bike setup, just been really busy. Looking forward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
