This is my saddle, I did 70 miles on it yesterday with no discomfort at all. My bicycle commute is 23 miles in each direction and find I like this with just regular spandex shorts. I have abandoned padded bike shorts. I find there are far to many stitched seems in the for my personal comfort. This saddle is my keeper, I went through a few of them till I came across this one. It takes a bit to discover what saddle and clothing combination works with your body. Trial and error is the only way.

Just got one of these and I love it. Does EVERYTHING they claim. When I took it out of the box I thought there is no way I can sit on this thing! I spent the whole afternoon and 33miles on it yesterday. My legs were done but my Butt and my boys felt fine.

Only false advertising is the made in Italy claim. Sticker underneath says made in Taiwan.

Terry Fly Ti on my hybrid (GF Kaitai) and trainer (Scott Santa Fe), and Selle Italia SLR Gel Flow on the roadbike. The Terry Fly is an AMAZING fit for me. If it were just a few grams lighter, I would have one on my roadbike. On an older roadbike, I used the Fly for commuting 38 miles a day year round for three years as well as metric and english centuries with zero discomfort. That being said, all sadles take a little dialing in for fit, but I would have no problems if the Fly were my only option.

My Fizik Nisene was starting to hurt.


Replaced with Fizik Gobi XM. Ahh, much better!
