Are SDG I-Beam saddles/seatposts any good?
Looks like some pretty good deals on CRC but there are quite a few negative reviews.
I'm usually doing normal cross country, with occasional jumps + more dh type stuff.
I like mine. The early ones are a bit solid under the rump if you do a heavy landing, but that quickly teaches you to ride properly 😀
(Easy to adjust, and nice and light too)
been running mine since last april, all good, so easy to adjust and weighs sod all, for £50 it's a no brainer imho...
Use mine for XC riding an found it very comfortable even on a rigid bike. As said before light as a feather.
Used for 12 hour race as well with no problems at all 🙂
Would definately get another one for my other bike when it needs another saddle.
I have 4 bikes all with i-beam saddles. They are great, and I personally think they are as comfy as a railed saddle. They are light too.
use one on my 456 Ti........FX saddle is super comfortable, with flex built in...great stuff imo.
Nice one, cheers fellas
Check out Alpine Bike's website.
Got a i-beam saddle and seatpost for just £27 (half-price saddle and free seatpost).
Only done one ride on it so comment on anything other than - easy to set up and nice'n'light.
dam you stirlingcrispin i was gonne pull that one outta the bag.. good deal though if you get one!!
Hmmm, can't find that deal, it's buy both together, get them half price.
Saves about a tenner over CRC's already good price so not bad I suppose!
i like mine had it for ages now
look at the sdg seat post failure below
Well yeh, but i've snapped two normal seat posts and snapped solid cromo rails...i'm a little over 9 stone.
been using these for the last few years without any problem. Recommended
