Have been reading some good reviews about the Spesh Romin saddles - most saying how comfortable they are on longer rides.
Don't see many about, or even for sale.
Anyone use one and care to share their findings?
I have one on a Cotic Soul. Bought it because I couldn't get a Toupe but I think it is better. They don't have spiky bits on the back that catch your clothes. I love minimalist saddles and think it is really comfy but i have ridden a lot for years and so have no nerves left in my nether regions.
When my children borrow my XC bikes they always moan about the saddles but are quite happy on the SDG saddles on the downhill bikes.
I run one on both roadies. Good shape and the curved shape is something is something I've always preferred over a 'flat' saddle. Padding is hard though so you really need to fit it well. I run a 130mm version. Tried the 143 but it was too wide.
Awesome!
Saved my arse literally...
They're as hard as nails, but the shape just suits me perfectly. And you don't see many for sale second hand, cos most that but them love them. And you can try before you buy from your local Spesh dealer too, so zero risk. When they do come up for sale on eBay, they fetch nearly new prices too, which indicates just how popular they are.
If you've ever suffered with numbness, give one a try. I'm very happy with mine. Again, fit is important. I run a 155 on my road bike, despite using narrowish gobis on my MTBs.
