Apr 14, 2003 5:01 AM | | I had to share this pic. I was in Germany last weekend for a marathon, and couldn't help but notice: at least 50% of the racers had an SLR - in some form - on their bike. This pic was taken in the dorm where about 40 people slept... |

| I put mine back on my hibrid road as I found it too slippery... | malcolm
Apr 14, 2003 10:23 PM | | on the NRS- maybe I've just got a slippery ass but I do think they are a better road saddle.Now have on the WTB that came with the NRS and it feels much grippier and I now feel in more control- doesnt look as stealth though and about 80 grms heavier.

| So you need to have a grip on your bike with your ass? | control freak
Apr 15, 2003 12:22 AM | | That is a new one to me.
I always thought you had to be able to slide
behind your saddle on steep downhills and
sit on the nose on fast flats. The only
time I need the saddle to control my bike is
when I'm standing up in fast technical sections,
but then I use my thighs. |

Apr 14, 2003 11:57 PM | | i find on a full sus the saddle needs to be as least as comfy as on a hardtail. because you're sitting down so much more and don't have to worry about unweighting the rear whell all the time, I notice a lot more if the saddle is not for me. on the slr subject, i have an xp that i gave up using after a couple rides, because the back is not raised (the contrary actually), whereas my kind of saddle (ie flite) raises at the back which push you forward. but i might have another go at the slr. |
