I got out this morning for a quick, short ride. I still need to tweak the position but I think it will be ok.
I rode 5 miles averaging 12.5mph. The Cobb saddle felt almost hard when I first sat on it but after a mile or less I really didn’t notice the saddle at all. After 5 miles I had no discomfort at all. I know that is a short test but my hiney is happy with it.
It may even get a little better as I break it in.
I did notice that it is really slick. I guess that will go away as I ride it.
