Has given me the joy of driving back

I have bought the SQlab 611 active MTB, because I had extreme seating problems when traveling for more than 30 minutes with other saddles. In addition to irritation of tendon attachments I had to contend with very unagenehmen numbness in the perineum area. The saddle was too soft. So it was no more state. So hastily surveyed the seat bone distance. These need not necessarily go into a shop to a piece of thick corrugated cardboard as possible it does. The cardboard piece on a hard surface (Unpadded chair etc.) Laying sit on and raise your legs slightly off the floor. In addition, a little pull with your hands to the seat back to increase the pressure on the pad. After that you should see two circular impressions in the corrugated board. Of the middle Mark, Measure Distance, finished. Depending on the attitude needs to this width still a small distance can be added, for the MTB there are 2cm. Thus I came to 14cm for the saddle to be appointed.

When I held the package with the saddle in hand, I thought at first it would be empty, feather is the saddle. The workmanship is overall very clean. It is accompanied by a bilingual guide, is explained in the UA, which pads are assigned to which body weight.

The saddle has a thin gel pad, which takes away the worst pressure peaks. Nevertheless, as a Vorrezensent you have already noticed - be aware that the relief of perineal area has to be naturally absorbed somewhere else. In the present saddle concept that is the seat bone area. These are after a short familiarization (with me 3 short trips, a total of about 30 km) but not sensitive enough pain to carry the body weight even when cross-country runs. The layman is surprised, but a softer saddle is really convenient for short trips only, and is about a pain.

It requires precise adjustment of the seat, ideally with an angle-adjustable saddle candle. I vary the setting a few times, with me in the middle of the longitudinal adjustment was perfect, with a horizontal adjustment of the top edge. One should at first exits just have a matching Allen for the fifth candle in your pocket.

The saddle comes with 3 different hard cushion inserts for active technology that allows a lateral left-right tilting of the saddle surface during the pedaling motion. If you have used the right to body weight padding, this tilting movement takes place imperceptibly, but relief. My previous back pain are gone anyway. Otherwise, the technology works rather unremarkable, except for the fact that you can feel the saddle a very easy game of the saddle surface when lifting the wheel. Chance I've read about it, that cushion inserts have been lost, so you should place the pads very carefully and take some time for it, so that it sits really 100%.

This saddle has given me the joy of driving back, the added proud purchase price has been completely paid off with it. Tlw. Discontinued Items sold slightly cheaper with other optics.

5 star, most buy recommendation!
