Old Butt, Same Story…Not

By Seth Brown

Where do I start?
I've been a Roadie (on and off) for 35 yrs. I'm not Cat racer, but I've done my share of "epic rides". Vail Pass, France..lots of roadie themed vacations (my wifes a saint)...
I tried counting up the amt of saddles I've owned..I stopped at 30...and I know there's more.
Fizik, Selle Italia,San Marco, Serfus, etc.
I was building my "mid life", lifetime, bike a few yrs back (Moots/Red/ Dura Ace wheels-tubeless/ Winwood bar...the works).My dealer mentioned a Selle Anatomica. I watched the on line video and bought into the tech behind it ( I'm not techie..it made plain sense)
My saddles all start the same..20 mls, great; 30 mls, a bit sketchy, 40 mls, replace my crotch/butt. Like most type "A" males..(what roadie isn't?)...no compaints..however, i stopped looking to do anything over 40 mls at a time..
Then came.. Selle Anatomica...whoa....where have you been all my life?
Before I purchased , I read Craig Calfee's review; he talked of a century +, 2 days after he bought it..no pain...I thought to myself, this I have to try...Craig, you were 100% right.
30, 40, 60, 100....my engine may not be what it needs to be( and if the truth be told, it's pulling a larger chassis)...but my butt is just fine thank you..I have one on both of my bikes..I'll never own another saddle...I'll sign off now..think I need to "pamper my butt" and ride my bike.
Regards.
