In addition, I'd also like to note that rains absolutely kills this thing. I had two that stretched out so I could no longer use tension screw, and both were replaced because the company said this was a "very uncommon problem." Maybe it is, but I was 2/2.

Anyway, I ended up selling them to someone who thought they were the best thing ever. My point is that it's just saddle. Nothing special. It might work for you, or it might not.

I switched to a Brooks B17 and it works for me.
Did that water damage occur with the Watershed model that S-A sells, or with the conventional one? The conventional one is not intended to resist water. Silly me, I have it on my fendered bike!
