Default New favorite saddle.

I have now spent some time in the saddle and the new WTB Devo Saddle has unseated my forever favorite saddle, WTB Laser Stealth Team. At first I did not think I would like it...it is a much harder seat. Bonus is it weighs 200 grams, 40 less than my other WTB seat. Old seat was all leather but it had stitching. This seat is one solid piece of leather and no seams. My old seat was replaced because the stitching gave out and seat is coming apart...three years and thousands of miles on the old seat...I am not complaining.

It did seem more comfortable on the pavement.

i recently got one of the devo's as well- while comfy off road, on the steeps i've noticed its easy to get off the back of it, but to get back on, it's not so easy.
