BaGearA Posted July 5, 2017 Share My saddle is not bad but I'd like A power saddle ...if anyone is feelimg generous. Who has A wtb volt ? They seem quite good and come in A narrow version which is what I need AdamA 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lechatnoir Posted July 5, 2017 Share Technically, numbess is not pain... it's the absence of feeling. But for your purposes, it can be pain Mikejk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverRider Posted July 5, 2017 Share My saddle is not bad but I'd like A power saddle ...if anyone is feelimg generous. Who has A wtb volt ? They seem quite good and come in A narrow version which is what I need I'm a big fan of WTB's saddles. I have a Volt and a couple of Silverados on my bikes. The volt is on the roadbike and I like it especially for the 100km + rides. I have a Silverado on the commuter and another on the duallie. I wont be buying anything else soon.

bertusras Posted July 5, 2017 Share I think my butt is like my blood group, universally accepted. I have three different saddles on my three bikes, and none of them give me issues. Well, there was some mild discomfort until I went for a bikefit, and now I have no issues. So my feeling is the majority of saddle issues are related to bikefit, and not having the correct width. Had this problem with the girl not so long ago, then paid for a fit, a less wide saddle and she's got no complaints since then. Go for a fit! Bageara, I have a WTB volt on my cross/gravel grinder and it's lovely. I had it on my first roadbike and it was so comfortable that I decided to move it over to the CX when I got my current road bike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You probably have a tough butt, same as guys who get blisters on feet, trying various shoes to stop it, bottom line is rather make your feet tougher than try find shoes to stop blisters.A tough butt will handle most saddles fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have had 3 Selle's and I would rather drill a hole in a piece of wood and sit on that, that is how bad they are to me! Long Wheel Base 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, the harder and flatter the saddle the better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaper Posted July 5, 2017 Share Been riding a Charge Spoon saddle for a number of years.... even after 6hrs of riding is still comfy! Will not change it. My TT bike has an Adamo Podium, also very comfy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
