    Don't use if myself but we sell them in the shop. It looks reasonable - quite a flexy hull. I think that weight figure may be a bit optimistic.

  • hahah! the flexi bit should help with my backside loL! current one after a while starts to nbe a pain, thought that if this one flexes a little it may help reduce the bum pain on longer rides! a couple of reviews on ther net came out with the seat lighter than claimed!
    was thinking for £25 it may be worth a punt! (after a carbon onne for the flexy comfort??)

    No experience of those - but I ordered a Charge 'Spoon' saddle for twenty incl P&P from Rutland Cycles - at least that had decent reviews from people on here.

    Not sure that carbon = comfort though ?

    It was intended as sarcasm but I guess I can see it both ways. :wink:
    I do get a kick out of some of the names the manufacturers give to their products.
    It's bio and has flex. How could it be bad?

    They do a junior version. I think it's called Baby Bio. These saddles tend to grow on you after a while.
