Creaking saddle

bikeit65

I have a Prologo saddle and this past few weeks it's developed a cracking noise, I've greased the rails torqued the bolt to spec and sprayed GT85 where the rails go into the saddle but it's still creaking any advise please on how I can fix this. TIA

I have hose blasted underneath saddle at nose section and where rails locate at the back, sprayed GT85 and left for a while.

Stood saddle upright and used chain lube on rail entry points in the hope of it making its way inside overnight.

Worth a try and has worked two out of three times for me in the past.

When you say ‘cracking’ sound, if you really mean cracking as opposed to creaking, then are you sure something isn’t actually broken? I’ve had a Fizik saddle base actually split all the way across before. Held together by the cover and padding so it didn’t look damaged until I looked underneath....

I had it off checked it and nothing seems to be broken, anyone know if you take the wee plastic side guards off that they will go back on again
