Hi,
I currently have the WTB Deva on both my mountain bike and road bike. I love this saddle about 85% of the time and would love some feedback from those who race. When riding casually or even on most training rides I'm able to support the majority of my weight on my sit bones really nicely. But when I'm racing or on a hard training road ride I drop my torso down a lot and therefore there's a lot of pressure on my pubic bone. Yesterday I raced my mtnbike. There were a lot of hills to climb and fast sections so I was definitely leaning down a good bit. Today my pubic bone is sore. I have no problem with pressure on my soft parts but it's the leaning... advice? recommendations? All appreciated.
Thanks!
