I first read about this saddle over on MTBR.com: http://forums.mtbr.com/showthread.ph...ghlight=phenom

Quite a few people where claiming it was more comfortable than the Toupe saddle which I use. So I gave my LBS a call and we slapped this saddle on my CDA. The first thing I noticed was the lack of flex. This happened to be a good thing as once I started to ride I felt much more stable and comfortable.

I ended up putting about 2.5 hours on the new saddle and didn't get numb at all. I attribute this to a slightly larger surface area than the Toupe and a wider (maybe a few mm's) nose on the saddle. I'll have more feedback after I do some riding up in Tahoe this weekend, but I'm pretty happy so far.

-Thanks, Todd
