Which Saddle?

Arione. Best saddle ever. Just wish they'd last a bit longer before looking tatty.

Charge Spoon FTW

everones arse is different.

stripped SLR for me. and no padding.

Charge Spoon.

Its nice to sit on, looks great & is a very reasonable price.

SLR's are awesome saddles. The specialized Alias (narrow version) was pretty damn comfy.

Flite Titaniums are easily my favourite saddle though.

Agree, Fizik Arione! Other cheaper versions r good too.

had a go on an arione and it ruined my gooch...

Everyone knows it's all about the spongy wonder!

are these for testes?

I have a Charge Spoon but reckon I could do with something a little more padded, Rolls perhaps?

Bianchi Pista riders: is the charge spoon as comfortable as the stock pista saddle? It looks nicer, but doesn't have as deep a groove for the taint. Is this noticeable for those of you who have made the replacement? Seems to be a pretty popular switch to make.

I read a lot of reviews on t'interweb which stated the Charge Spoon is super comfortable.

For me it was absolute agony. Everyone's different innit.

The good thing about the charge is the fact that the resale value is very good as they are in demand. I bought a 2nd hand one for 15 notes and sold it for 17 notes a month later.

@ marksparky - the rolls is padded but still quite firm.

I've just fitted a charge spoon saddle and I find it more comfortable especially for long rides and during sprinting.

You calling me a teste?

how waterproof are charge spoons?
ie. if left out in the rain, will they seep water out when sat on?

i have a completely in-permeable selle marco which just wipes down completely dry
but its not particularly comfy..

i dont own one but i rode a charge spoon for a week or so, and that was the most comfortable saddle ive tried.

anyone tried unpicking the "charge" logo?

i currently have an 80s no name plastic bmx saddle. no padding. looks like it should be terrible but i actually dont mind it.

I ride this and love it:

(It's extremely light and stiff, apparently it only lasts a year if ridden every day though...)

what is"this" you speak of?

just got the regal, it hugs my bottom. Shouldn't have suffered or so long on that piece of crap bontrager saddle, light saddles much overrated.

@ Ved, I think my sit bones must be able to cut glass, the Charge is rock, if the Rolls is even a little bit more padded I'm all good! Still, any recommendations?

Fizik Arione on one track bike
Turbo on road bike
Turbo on fixed-street

+1 for Fizik Arione. Nothing else I've tried seems as comfortable (for me). Though the Charge Spoon came close, and is a lot cheaper!
