Guy we ride with always ends up twisting and bending the rails on his saddle - happens with different makes and models. Anybody else had similair problem - what about using a sprung saddle?

I kepy bending my spesh ti rail saddles on my mtb but my road bike was fine.

I was 100kg and sat down over hard bumps. Guess the saddle rails were not strong enough.

Also tighten the rails too much can cauuse failure too.

I'm 88kg and haven't had any saddle problems and the saddle creak has gone.

Too lardy was my prob!

Maybe he should try a different saddle and post and get someone else to install it.

Can't keep replacing them.

Get him to stand up or but a full susser?
