yes, i have tried it and i liked it very much. i have it on one of my bikes, and i have the Pure V on my other bike. i am a huge fan of the WTB saddles. be aware that a saddle is a very personal preference, and just because it works for one person doesn't mean it will work for you.

I'm not a fan. It just don't fit me'bum like the Rocket V for some reason. Good MFGR and good construction though.

OP-I have one as well.
The reviews/opinions out there are generally favorable. I picked one up to see if it works for me any better than the Terry Ti Flys I have on three bikes. Just put the WTB on one of my road bikes, some more saddle time will tell whether it works for me.

WTB Speed V is my favorite of the 10-12 saddles I've tried. It's on my commuting bike as that's where I spend most of my time.

Same here. I tried one and *for me* it was a pure a$$ hatchet. But it was a well made saddle. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend someone to try it if they had a reason to think it was approximately the right shape, but make sure you can return it. This applies to any saddle, not a criticism of WTB
