In my seemingly never ending quest to find a saddle that's comfortable, I nicked the Rocket V off MrsIHN's bike and tried it on mine and I think I like it (and we'll gloss over why it's taken me over ten years to come up with the idea...)
They obviously don't make the Rocket V any more, so what is the 'new' Rocket V, is it the Solano? And/or, what other saddles work for people with a Rocket V shaped bum?
The Volt replaced it, the same basic shape on the upper with a slimmed-down side profile and a choice of more widths.Â
If you MUST have a Rocket V, I've got one (it's a "demo" saddle with Ti rails,I think) on my road bike that hasn't been used in *cough* some time. I'd just need to replace it with something that I can comfortably use. If you want it, let me know and I'll see what it'll cost me to find something else
Cheers for the offer, but there's plenty on eBay if I decide that's what I want
I used to use Rocket V and SST before that. I've recently gone to a solano for the gravel bike. Sizing came up as wide using their tool and its fine. A bit shorter than usual but comfy so far.Â
I'd still consider the current rocket
I was going to say that I think it is just called Rocket now but it seems like the shape has changed on the WTB website
Their Amazon link still shows the old shape so I am confused
It would be easy to return if it is different to the pictures though
I've had success with an Ergon SM series saddle, I used to use WTB Rocket, bought the Ergon when i couldn't get hold of a rocket in the price/colour range I wanted.Â
