According to the product specialist
Pros
This saddle is excellent value for money. |
This saddle is all about performance; perfect for high-speed riders! |
You don't move on this saddle when changing positions. |
The ergonomically shaped cut-out alleviates pressure on your soft tissue area. |
The addition of carbon to the nylon shell makes the saddle stiffer, lighter and more durable. |
This saddle allows you to sit in a deep position without causing posterior discomfort. |
This saddle has a flat back, which makes the Pro Stealth suitable for cyclists who sit still or only slightly rock their hips while cycling. |
The cut-out relieves pressure on the soft tissue areas. |
The shell of this saddle is reinforced with carbon. This improves the transmission of power and makes the saddle less prone to deformation. |
Due to the stainless steel rails, this saddle provides sufficient comfort and is lighter than the Pro Stealth Sport saddle. |
This saddle is excellent value for money. |
Large cut-out alleviates pressure in the sof tissue areas. |
The steel rails filter out vibrations well. |
Cons
This saddle is less comfortable than the Tempo Argo R5, whose main focus is on endurance. |
This medium-hard saddle is suitable for riders who cycle 1-2 times a week. If you cycle less often, you need a softer saddle that offers more comfort. If you cycle more often, you need a harder saddle that offers more support. |
Not every cyclist will sit comfortably on this saddle. Take your degree of flexibility, cycling posture and seat bone width into account, or follow the steps in our Saddle Selection Guide. |
As this is a hard saddle, you will need long and frequent rides to get used to it. It offers the best support for longer rides. If you ride less than three times a week, you need a softer saddle that offers more comfort. |
The nylon shell is less stiff and more likely to cause sore spots than a carbon shell. |
