Translation: The saddle is best for grandma.

Though I take issue with the comment that you are only supported by the horn when cycling with a forward position.. I value my groin higher than any other part of my body, and I wouldn't allow it to be mashed in a bad way, and I don't find the horn on my saddles doing anything bad to me.

Oh well. yet another 'reinvention' of the saddle that will eventually go the way of the dinosaur..

peace,
