- Patrick 11 September 2024

I did two rides with this new saddle, after greasing it with proofide. A first ride of 50 km and a second of 100 km. No pain was felt, and it felt very comfortable from the second ride. In the end, I found this leather saddle to be very supple. It offers better value for money than the competition.

Super comfortable

- Victor 5 August 2024

Incomparable comfort compared to my previous saddle, the leather slips a lot at first but this quickly diminishes as the shape adapts and evolves.
