MTB Saddle advice

Hi all,

I know saddles are very personal, but I think I have found my match.


But it's for the road.

I have a bontrager paradigm race saddle on my road bike and love it. Would it be weird to buy a second for my MTB?
Is there that much of a difference between road and MTB saddle?

Thanks

Jackson

    Weird, no.

    OK, yes.

    Only thing to be aware of is some road saddles can be a bit 'catchy' on the nose and more likely to snag your shorts, others are just fine. Many saddles are neither road nor MTB, just 'a saddle'.

    Why's it weird? I run Charge Spoons on all my bikes, MTB and road.
