anyone have one of these things? I sort of like the looks of them. Looks like they have had a few different rails.

Have you ridden a leather Selle Anatomica? I used one for a few months, but at my weight the center slit was a "stuff" pincher, carbon fiber might make it a "stuff" amputater.

One of my ridding buddies uses one. it's 100% stiff. it does not give. I don't see how he rides it.

But somehow he does. says he has adapted to it. Maybe there is some "give" in it. But I could not tell that. He has some fat on his butt. His wife bought it for him for Christmas...as an expensive surprise for his bike. I'm talking about the $400 carbon model.

Several of my riding buddies use the leather one. They are constantly tightening the nose to take up slack.

I have sat on but not ridden a regular selle anatomica.

Super stiff :(

My buddy swear by the leather models.
