Im looking at getting a WTB speed V from a friend. It came on his K2 tirade 4.0 and he wants a new one. I have a crapty on my kona thats really uncomfortable. Does anyone know anything about the speed v?

Ive heard that its really comfortable but hten not everyones bum is made the same so you should test it out and see how it goes.

Saddle fit and feel differently for different people. I have a WTB Speed V and I really like it. I also have a Selle San Marco on my road bike and I really like it too. I have Serfas on my SS and I don't like it.

You really have to experiment to find what works for you and your bum!

I have a Lazer V and its dam fine, my only complaint is that it's a little too big for my likes but it doesnt mean its not comfortable

I have the Laser V on my new SS. I only have 2 rides on it thus far, but so far - so good!

I have a WTB that quite alot like the Speed...... its a pain in the ass for a while (Literally) but once its worn in and ur ass is trained to it its a great saddle..... Rated 8/10 by mbuk

I've heard the Speed V is comfortable. I currently run a different Selle San Marco saddle on both my road and mountain bikes and find them very comfortable.

LOVE the Speed V! I put one on each of my 3 bikes.
