My New Bike (to be anyways)

By coincidence, just bought a Terry for the Fargo and have yet to give it a try.

NWG - I think the Terry Butterfly works good if you are hippy like I am. I have recommended it to other girlfriends who have woman hips and they have all appreciated its design. I think the width of the Butterfly is about 155 mm which is significantly wider in the rear of the saddle than most others.

I have a Ti butterfly on my other roadbike and its been a good saddle. I tried a chromoly Butterfly once and it was like sitting on a brick. I assume Terry must make their higher end saddles more comfortable, flexible? The reason I say this is b/c the Ti was so much more flexible than the chromoly and now the carbon one is simply amazingly flexible. I'm excited to try it out :-)

Been itching to get out and try the new Terry, but rain, rain and more rain, these past few days. Getting some brief rides in, between showers, but most of my riding has been indoors on the trainer.

As usual my Terry Butterfly did not disappoint and yes the carbon is even more comfy than the Ti. Now if I could get my shorts situated.

Saddle success is always worth celebrating! What problems are you having with your shorts?

[WindingRoad]

Well all my old ones no longer fit because I gained some weight :-( I'm working on that though. The ones I currently have that are still useful are really old or lighter cushioning. I have been reading short reviews till my eyes are ready to bug out of my head then I give up and STILL don't order some new shorts! I'm beginning to annoy myself. They are just so expensive I hate to order some then they really suck.

Have been riding the Salsa with the newly added Terry Butterfly (chrome molly model) and I very pleased. It fits! Yeah! Makes an already comfy bike even more comfy to ride. (The Salsa Fargo is a 29er with drop bars and those big 2.3" tires, so sort of an all terrain road bike.)
