chinese carbon saddles

I found this video I remember watching a while back from
Road Cycling Academy, link:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eEHANkH8cls"
I won't go into the YouTuber's merits; he seems to be very knowledgeable about what he's talking about.

In the video, he praises various Ryet saddles, describing them as some of the most comfortable I've ever tried. I wanted to share it with you; I think it's worth a look.
For example, this is the next saddle I'd like to get https://it.aliexpress.com/item/1005006774719031.html

i've had no luck getting my position dialed in with short nosed saddles

was wondering if there's any recommended saddles that's 270x150 in size?

I seem to be in the same boat as you, I have these 2 now for testing - will report back when I did some km.

Has anyone seen a 3D replica of a Prologo Dimension saddle on AX? I tried the Ryet Aircode and its pretty good but the nose is a bit wide. Been riding Dimension 143's for a while and they're just right.

the jawbone looks nice but i stopped looking when I found my slightly used fabric scoop elite shallow saddle (mouthful, i know) which measures 282x142mm and couldn't be happier

Let us know how it goes...
Currently using a Specialized Power Comp clone similar to MIXED 6D in 155mm width, but looking for a longer saddle in 150mm width.
Did give Ryet Aircode 3D a go, but it was stiff like a plank, maybe aggregated by me being a heavier rider...

I have the Ryet. Aircode in carbon base version and recently got the plastic base version to try. The carbon base was very rigid and someone here suggested the plastic so I going to give it a try.  Will report back when I have had some rides.

Anyone else have a similar bad experience with the plastic base saddles?

I got a 3D-printed plastic base RYET ultimate with the cromoly rails for my commuter bike. The padding feels decent, probably a bit too soft but that's not really an issue compared to the saddle construction. The base material itself is insanely flexible, as in I can collapse the perineal cutout by just pressing on the sides. Sometimes it pinches my balls in between when I sit on it without bike shorts.

Needless to say I will be returning it.

The ultimate is a far bit slimmer than the Aircode, particularly on the nose.

If you are going for the carbon base it has absolutely no in built flex (unlike the plastic models) so if you want some cushioning go for 3d printing. If you go for EVA it will be a very firm ride.

I've been thinking of trying that saddle too, the 3d printed model. Has anyone tried it?

I have this with the EVA padding, it’s been great so far.

EVA should be harder than 3d Print and 3d heavier than EVA?

EVA is padded, but yes, it might be a little firmer. But it is much lighter than the 3D printer one.
