Hi all
I have a charge spoon saddle http://road.cc/content/review/4230-char ... -ti-saddle (cro mo rails in black)and wondering is there any special ways of setting the saddle up. Reason is it has a swoosh profile. Nose and tail kick up. When level is the nose and high points on the tail to be level, or Nose and the dip in the middle at the back be level, or level from the mid point of the saddle to the nose?? Recently had it as the nose kicking down a little and resulting in the inner thighs rubbing and perineum becoming sore/numb. Its attached to a Richey comp seat post http://www.evanscycles.com/products/rit ... t-ec017561

    Place hard backed book on saddle and then level the book.

    Make appropriate minor adjustment either way from that level point.
    Yellow is the new Black.

    "When level is the nose and high points on the tail to be level?"

    That's how I have mine set up. Seems to stop me sliding forwards onto the narrower bit, which would result in the numbness you describe.

    I don't think there is an answer here just whatever works for you, ( thinks* is that an answer)?
