I know they are great saddles but I called a couple bike shops in my local area and they said that they stopped doing the fitting system because it was very Inaccurate. But they still sell them and say they are great saddles. You just have to try each one yourself.

honestly, i tried a pletora of saddles and strangely the least expensive are the best for me. i have a fabric flat and a SMP comfort. both great to me. the fabric for wet days and the SMP for hot days. i still prefer the SMP but the fabric is lighter and more in adequation with the look of my bike. but hey! only the bum is king to make the right choice.

I am NOT a performance cyclist. I just like to bikepack longer distances and I sit pretty upright. I'm just a cruiser. So does that mean I don't need as much of a cutout? My seat I have now is 185mm wide and I know it's too wide. It doesn't have much of a cutout. Just a rookie here all confused.

Saddle manufacturers need to get away from the “mens or womens” marketing, and just make different widths and shapes. Some men fit best on saddles that are presently marketed to women, and some women fit better on “mens” saddles. It’s all marketing hype. After performing hundreds of fits, the most popular width road or mtb saddle widths I’ve seen people fit is 155mm. Selle Italia doesn’t even make one. They are so behind on development it’s ridiculous. I feel sorry for the guys and gals who are paid to ride and race those saddles when they don’t make the right size to stabilize their pelvis. Don’t they suffer enough already?

You won't have a wide selection of what drivetrain to get. Go with something like a Trek Verve. Can get one for around $500 and you know it isn't gonna break down on you. Lifetime warranty. I do work for Trek to be completely honest, but I don't get anything out of you buying one lol. We just make great bikes.

Selle Italia needs to bring back the SLC. No connection at the back which allows for each side to move independently from being connected at the rear of the saddle.

Those companies have to start thinking out of the box. Not every cyclist is European meaning that depend on genetics not everyone is thin. I really hate Specialized but has to gave it to them when releasing the Power Saddle. And before that I used SMP, ISM, Italia and Marco.

You know what's sad? When I saw first frame with Ollie I just thought how fast I will hear "awesome". Technically I was wrong, it was "amazing", but I am pretty sure there are other words in English vocabulary like "interesting", "unusual". If you don't learn them fast in a year you will have to sprinkle video with gold to make your point -- labelling every single cable or nut as awesome, amazing or brilliant is growing tiresome (and fruitless).

Oh, guys, please let me put one of these babies onto my Canyon Ultimate CF SLX so i can try to be like Senor Valverde and find a win at my Gold Coast Masters Crit events down here in sunny Queensland Australia this season. My only win came when they decided it was a non event because another grade had a crash on the line after we started our final lap and its hard to hear them say slow down at 56kph due to the Doppler effect, which was too late once i had crossed the line. Not to mention the effect this saddle could do for our Sunday morning post race workout once back in the sheets. Not only would I gladly surrender my non-sheep station winning money (all $20) but the smile on my missus face would be great to see once more!! if you know what I mean!! nudge nudge, wink wink!
