lechatnoir Posted December 26, 2016 Share Mrs Santa deemed my year's behavior worthy of a Power Pro saddle. First ride today and nary bruised sitbone. May need to adjust the nose down a bit. It's a huge difference to the Arione-like saddle I had before. Cover is a lot grippier and it's good that sliding around on the saddle is a thing of the past - it's a tiny saddle!

JXV Posted December 26, 2016 Share Compared to the Phenom that I was happy with the same size (143mm) Power saddle felt too wide and very short on longer rides. Two changes I made....nose down a bit more than previous saddle and lowered the seatpost about 5mm . Totally happy now.

AlanD Posted December 30, 2016 Share I have behaving some tenderness for a while now and went for a 2H30min ride yesterday and it's sore. The skin is more tender and there is a sore there (apologies for the info) which should not really be the case right? I am riding a Henge 143 Its been tender for long time now and on a Ride with Pikey, I rode his bike and he had this power saddle and I thought to myself that it felt super comfy, like it's not even there. So I went on a mission to get one seeing as though I was having some issues. Went to a concept sore to measure my sit bones and the said I need a 155 for sure. Measured twice and no where close to even a 143 which is what I was on. Scoured the classifieds here and found one as good as new so of course I bought it and it arrived today. You are probably expecting this super success story of how all my pain had gone but not yet. After reading this thread it was clear that the saddle needs to be set up correctly so I have put it on trying to get the nose part level. Please advise if this looks right as per pic attached. A quick pedal around the driveway and it feels different and seems to put me more forward but I did read that it tends to put you in more race like position. This will take time to get used to but will be able to tell after 2 or 3 rides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
