Thanks!
The SQ Lab saddle has done me well on 20ish mile rides. I had a similar experience initially, in that it felt great immediately, but then got a little awkward. However, I adapted quickly, and find it perfectly comfortable for a couple of hours. Not that it becomes uncomfortable, rather I’ve just not ridden it longer.
I will say, though, that this would not be my go-to saddle for a race bike, as it seems to suit me better when I’m in one position, at moderate effort. I’ve not tried to do hard rides off it, but I can imagine the shape is not great for moving all over, hammering, with an aggressive forward-tilt pelvis.
