Selle SMP discussion

Genuine Eau Du Barse? ;)

Has anyone got any genuine Composits for sale? After arming all my bikes with Dynamics (carbon rail and steel) I've now discovered the improvement for me on a Composit! Might just buy a carbon rail one from Lordgun.

@skinny

Yeah I've practically brand new one sat in a draw if you're keen pm me.

Im up for grabbing a surplus dynamic you want to get rid off now!

Guichvenchy?

Haha not bad :)

I am still being nipped by the lite209, there nose is just a touch wide and it catches.

Cheap ratty forma on ebay may try that...

saw that but i'm always a little wary buying from overseas, missed the composit that was on there that finished yesterday

It looks like it may go up now :/

EBay.de is a good bet too missed one for £46 (grrr) as new.

could you just strip your 209 and recover if you want to try the forma? supposed to be the same shell underneath?

I'm going to test this composit a bit more before I buy / sell. Have a chaingang ride tonight so that'll be a good test. The ride to work this morning felt really really good though. I find the dynamics don't give me enough perineum space so I can't fully bear my weight on it. I might be selling the following in the near future:
2x Carbon rail Dynamics in perfect condition with boxes.
1x Standard Dynamic well used but no scuffs or damage etc.
1x Standard Dynamic fairly beat up.

Registering interest in the beaten up dynamic...

most of you probably have been wondering what would happen if you took a scapel to a smp hell. Well, what you get is kind of similar to the high end smps like composit

weight before: 285
after: 205
(composit is 215g)

and the big thing: unlike the china carbon this has natural flex just like any real smp.
my arse cant tell the difference between this and composit.

my arse cant tell the difference between this and composit.

with or without cycling shorts?

Oh perhaps that works too. It'll destroy any resale value :/

Maybe a cheap full carbon lite knockoff is the way to go and get real thing lateron. The normal carbon is deffo too narrow.

just rode it around the block in jeans, if my flue is over by weekend ill report in greater detail

Thanks, sounds promising

My composit is still in a draw.

SMP Extra is now £50+ ?! I swear it used to be one of the budget options

37e here

I've got an unused one if you're interested?

Edit: no I haven't, mixed up my models. Got a trk for some reason.

Nice, thanks!

I was looking at it as a candidate for stripping like you did to the Hell. I have one on a bike already and really like it, but the padding is a bit much sometimes. I'm thinking that as it's a gel saddle the base is unlikely to be sturdy enough for sitting on without all the padding though?

lookin to try one of these.
whats my cheapest option that is still worthwhile?

I want to try an SMP. What's the cheapest way of doing so?
