After many years and thousands of miles,my comfy as a pair of old carpet slippers bg saddle has started to come apart at the seams and much as i love it,its time to move on.Quite fancy a fizik goby xm kium,has any one got/tried one out?I know everyones arse is different,just looking for some concensus of opinion before i lash out £70 on a new perch.
cheers in advance for your wisdom

I moved from a spesh bg to a gobi and liked it. however the gobi is quite flat / curved up so it feels VERY different to a bg cutout saddle. took me a long time to get used to but wouldnt change now
Got a custom carbon railed Gobi XM a mate in Germany ordered and didn't get on with... bought it off him for half price and as far as saddles go, It's my favourite, I do have an SDG Bel Air aswell which is ever so slightly more comfy with all the extra padding but is on the chunky side.
Had a Charge Spoon, but I didn't get on with it... I found the back end lacking in er, volume 😀
And while it was sleek the Gobi combines the aesthetically pleasing qualities of the Spoon and the comfort of the Bel Air remarkably well! 🙂
hth 😀
i just got a SDG formula MTR Ti from CRC, 70 delivered. not been on it yet,but looks ok. Described as their flagship model
many years !!!.....how many years exactly :wink:.....i have a womens specialized saddle which is approx 3 years old and after yesterdays extremely boggy wet ride the seams have split open even more.... 🙄
