    for some reason i never had a problem with my sit bones, maybe on my first two rides. It's the front bone that gives me problem when i am on my drops or going downhill. I hope i can solve this problem as buying hundreds of saddles is frustrating and expensive. Plus, if you think about it, some people spend as much money on new saddles as a cost of a new bike. I can't wait to get the saddle and take it for a try ride. Thanks

    I like mine, though I wish the nose was a bit narrower. It left some deep marks on the side where the thigh meets the crotchal area when I did IMAZ. I rode for the first time again the other day and noticed again that I had some pressure on the sides, but my bits LOVE it! And for some reason the shape of the saddle lends itself to being dumped down into the aerobars. So that's a nice plus for me. Overall I give it a thumbs up. I just have to lube the sides REALLY well to prevent chafing.

    I just ordered one from the ebay seller. Their original auction is over, so here is the link to the new one. Took me awhile to find it, they are on the UK version of ebay, so you won't find them on the US one. Total cost with shipping to US was 27.99 UK which is pounds? This came out to a little over $51.

    Bits are great, pelvic bones were not. My tip on the other thread is that the back should flare up with the "bump" in the nose being LEVEL. If you level the bump and the back....you will ride on the bump. I'm still ponderin the Terry Zero X....totally flat.

    Robbin, I am yet to put my saddle on before this weekend's ride. I am def. going to try to level the bump not the back of the saddle. One question- does that position make you slide down ? Or puts more pressure on your arms?

    I'm trying mien out this weekend too - keeping the wrenches handly to level and adjust as needed, and maybe even bring my old saddle in case I can't get it sorted just right - I don't want to hold up the rest of the gang! I hope this is "the one"!
