chinese carbon saddles

[ediryppah]

Anyone know a saddle similar to the Mixed 5D but with a bit wider nose?
I really like the saddle but it’s a bit narrow when in aero position.

I bought the Kore saddle because the West biking failed after, let´s say, 1500km, so very few km in good road conditions and my 74kg ass. It broke not on the rails, but on the seat plastic structure (there is a pic of that with the ironic QCpassed sticker).
I chose the Kore because I have the wheels and everybody likes them, so I gave it a shot.
Here are a few pics comparing both models.
Hope it lasts more than the West Biking.
They are in the same US60 price range, depending on offers.

I have another saddle in my TT bike but I have no photos. Had no problems with this Balugoe saddle.

Bought the 2026 Ryet RT06s and can confirm it indeed has different density zones. Firn at the sit bone area and progressively softer towards the nose. A friend has an Sworks power mirror and can confirm it feels very similar density wise and distribution.
However ir was pretty awful/horrendous for me with groin numbness that took 2/3 days to go a way just after two days of two hour rides. Scared it was permanent. Immediately took it off
Pretty sure my friend feels the same however he said he won't change it as he paid 500+USD for it.

Can confirm the Elita One 3dSR is a much better fit for me. Printing is softer than the Ryet and thinner yet more comfortable.

In short 2026 Ryet RT06s has zonal density for those interested and it's right around 100 USD right now. Can't say anything positive about it

Just got a Ryet P01 155mm delivered this week and done a 3-hour ride on it today. Coming from a Specialized Power Evo comp 155mm, the saddle shape seemed good but I get recurring saddle sores in delicate areas with it - I think there might be too much padding and it's causing chaffing.

I'm 81kg so fairly heavy for these Chinese saddles, however after today's ride I am pretty optimistic about this Power Evo-inspired model from Ryet. Felt pretty good overall.

The only issue, which I think someone else might've mentioned - it doesn't have as much front/rear range as the Specialized model. I've basically maxed out forward and it could probably still go a little further forward, but I think it will do. Will update if I come across any issues down the line.
