Cheers I'll be up for one if you have one surplus. I was a little worried about the unfinished underside edges of the Komm-Vor slicing my thighs if I end up low siding it whilst in Lycra mode. I should get on with the shape fine 🤞I've had plenty of narrow and un/minimal padded saddles so my Biffins bridge is like Rhino hide now.

I use a speedneedle on every bike - road / gravel / XC and should probably stick one on the cargo bike 😂 I love them and ended up just getting used to them. They’re definitely not everyone’s cup of tea, I’ve lent them to friends to try before and got handed them back very quickly accompanied by strong words. I found that they were just a little bit more robust than the Kom Vorr, had a narrower nose, and no edges on the underside which used to rip my bibs/legs to bits. But that could just be because I’ve got relatively robust thighs.
More than anything I just find I can get in a great position on them, but that might just be because I’ve ridden them for about 10 years.
I do use the marathon, which is slightly wider, again probably because of a robust arse. If I’ve got more than one spare I may be open to letting one go. I’ll check when I get home tomorrow.
