Recommendations for a carbon saddle?
1Sigma:
Hi all,
Any recommendations for a decent, lightweight, chiner saddle?
Seems like a lot of hit and miss on these, and hard to discern if it boils down to QC issues or, you know, because carbon saddles can be more prone to failure.
Currently checking this one out on Ali:
C$ 23.66 6％ Off | superlogic 3K Full Carbon Fiber Bicycle Saddle Road MTB Bike Carbon Saddle Seat Matte bike cushion 275*143mm cycling parts

Super light (115g) generally favourable reviews (for me, meaning the poor reviews do not revolve around quality), low incidence or reported failure (?)
Thanks!

i have the selle italia slr tekno flo knockoff and i have just bought another selle italia knockoff, both 140-160g. the slr tekno flo is 147mm wide and is meant for a moderate to large flexibility. you cant lack the flexibility because the thing curves down pretty severely so youd be uncomfortable if you're a bigger guy.
whats weird about it is that its the same discomfort from minute 1 thru hour 4, its uncomfortable but not painful, ive been into cycling for 4 months so it can just be im not used to a saddle but the pain is consistent, there isnt a drop off of comfort at some point

Thanks Nickk2000!

I have this one on my road, gravel and MTB :

It is 83g, solid and surprisingly comfy.
Well... if you ride regularly and with bibs.
Not a big investment to try in any case.
And... I buy them second hand if you're not happy ;D
