Comments about WTB Speed V Comp Saddle - Men's:
The original WTB Speed V seat that came with my Marin Muirwoods 29er suffered a failure with the rail that holds the seat to the seat stem assembly so this purchase is for replacing that seat. Given that the bike is used rather heavily, that I weigh about 220 and over some 7 years the bike and the seat have served me well. I just never expected that part of the seat to break? I've owned other bikes for much longer and never have had such a problem. The new seat was almost a perfect match to the original. The padding is more than adequate and the stitching hasn't been a problem. I guess if I get another seven years of use I am satisfied. I ride about 40 miles round-trip each day 3-5 times a week to get to work. So far no complaints.

Comments about WTB Speed V Comp Saddle - Men's:
I bought this saddle for an old mountain bike that I use for exercise, riding around town in an area with big hills. I can ride for an hour or more without a chamois, so the cushion is good. I wondered if the seams on the side would chafe, but so far no problem.

Comments about WTB Speed V Comp Saddle - Men's:
I normally use the WTB Laser saddle, a $100.00 + saddle. I could not find a Laser in stock and I saw this saddle in stock at the LBJ store. It looks very similar to the Laser so I bought it for my mountain bike for a trip to Colorado this summer. I am very happy with the saddle and so is my butt. It is very comfortable. Negative would be it is a little heavy for your 15# carbon road bike for all others it is a good deal.

Comments about WTB Speed V Comp Saddle - Men's:
I purchased this saddle for my mid-level road bike. I needed a little extra cushion to go alone with my cycling shorts for the extra mileage I was beginning to log. This saddle is great for the average rider who is trying to make there bike more comfortable with out adding too much bulk. The seat is sleek enough that other riders wont think your riding a beach cruiser seat on your road bike.

Comments about WTB Speed V Comp Saddle - Men's:
I'm a daily commuter but I put this on my weekend all carbon road bike. I replaced a very nice San Marco brand saddle that was just a little too hard to use without padding. I haven't had it long but the wtb is great so far. I can jump on the bike with just jeans or shorts or wear padded bike pants. Good price, good product. Comfortable without feeling mushy.

Comments about WTB Speed V Comp Saddle - Men's:
The seams on the edges of the saddle and along the "V" in the center are quite pronounced and are bothersome, even with good padded shorts. I don't like the shape of the saddle, too squared off.

Comments about WTB Speed V Comp Saddle - Men's:
This is the most comfortable saddle I've ever used on trail. It's just perfect for mountain biking. It's not as comfortable for road riding because it doesn't fit a tucked riding position as well, but for the slightly more upright MTBing position, it just doesn't get better.
