Have a look at the RYET T01 saddle, padding is non existant on mine :) but i think there are versions with more padding if you look around.

You mean this t01 https://it.aliexpress.com/item/1005008818725526.html? I actually never saw that model, super light also, im impressed

If you want something with more padding I suggest you this model https://it.aliexpress.com/item/1005008033573307.html

I have the same saddle and checked my bib shorts. The amount of wear depends on the type of fabric. On some bib shorts there is no visible wear at all, while on others—like in the picture—it is more noticeable. This is after about 800 km of riding.

lucky for you.. the side is collapsed on mine and is creating sharp edges damaging the bibs in 1 or 2 rides...rider weight 70 kg so this shouldnt be the problem...i think its a problem with the honey 3d print. I will test the normal aircode and hopefully this one is working better

This looks great but I would prefer to have a bit of padding. Couldn't find a padded version when I searched. I suspect the leather padded version is pretty hard too.
I shoud have been clearer in my post, i have the light "padded" version of T01. It's essensially the carbonfibre base wrapped in fake leather, maybe gives you less slipping but no added padding :-)
The base has some built in flex that dampens the impact of small bumps, i havn't done any really long rides on it yet, the longest my butt survived is a 100k 3:30h ride.
However saddles are a higly individual thing, what suits my butt may not suit everyones/anyones butt :D.

Regarding longevity, I have a Ryet Ultimate with 3D printed padding in use since end of 2024. It has about 8000 km of mileage. It's holding up well so far, it also survived a minor crash. I have the EVA padded Ultimate on another bike since last year with 2000 km or so of mileage. It's holding up well, too. So personally I can't complain!

How would you compare the comfort between 3d and EVA?

I have ordered two new Ryet carbon 3D saddles from Lexon (in 143mm and 140mm wide).
One of them got loose after less than 300km. The other one has only 112km, let's see what happens with it.
They sent me 50% of the price back. The saddles look good, weigh 170-175g more than in the description, but that’s fine as long as they feel good and are durable.
In terms of feel, they’re not bad or comfortable for my ass, for me just regular saddles….

Hey, could you do me a favor and measure the width of the nose of the saddles?
Thank you.

3D seems slightly more comfortable I guess, difference is pretty small though.

Hey guys,
Has anyone had any real-world experience with this Ryet saddle? https://it.aliexpress.com/item/1005008818725526.html
I like the fact that you can choose the color; I think it will match my Gravel bike beautifully.

I have one on my weight weenie(ish) build, there is no padding, only a syntetic "leather" cover over the carbon base.
The base has some built in flex witch makes it sligtly forgiving when it comes to bumps.
Picked it beacuse of the low weigth and the narrow width model (ca130mm).

Paired with a good padded bib, it works for me, i did a 150k ride on it this weekend

So ive just checked my bibs after a few months of riding the ryet aircode 3d printed saddle, and they have been cheesegrater'd pretty badly which is a shame as i really like the saddles. It is more pronounced on my winter bibs which are a thicker material.

Do people have better results with the t40 version? Otherwise i might just go back to my pro stealth

I've got a standard ryet saddle (no 3d padding) and no issue with the bibs
