Comments:
I upgraded the standard saddle that came with my 2013 Kona Sutra and haven't regretted the decision. Sure, it cost more than the first bike I bought myself (a Canadian Tire special from a thousand years ago)...but my butt and comfort is worth it. Sure, it looks like it won't be comfortable...but it is incredibly comfortable. I basically broke the saddle in by taking it for a couple of short rides around the city (~100 km), then out on a seven day unsupported solo tour (~675 km over mountain passes). It's a thing of beauty to stand up on your pedals or to dismount from the bike and not feel the excruciating pain of what I call "butt decompression." You know - that moment when blood flow returns to the nether regions that leaves you groaning in pain and walking bow-legged. How much do I love this saddle? I'm buying a nice, light road bike...and putting another one of these saddles on it. My butt is worth it. And so is yours. There's a reason this company has been around for more than a century, people. They build these things right.
