        Comments about Wilderness Trail Bikes Rocket V Team Saddle:

        I've been commuting on this saddle 30 miles a day for over a year on several different bikes. I've also done 3 centuries on it. It works perfectly for me! It is firm (as it should be) so chamois shorts are recommended. I don't suggest this saddle for mountain biking because the flared back can get in the way when you want to slide off the back of the saddle for ultra-steep technical descents. Also, the nose is not comfortable for forward perching on steep trail climbs. But for road...this has been a great saddle and has held up well...no apparent wear yet. (BTW...I'm 5'10", was 210 lbs...now 170 lbs)

          Comments about Wilderness Trail Bikes Rocket V Team Saddle:

          I use this saddle on my mountain and road bikes. It fits me great and never chafes. (I've gone up to 150 miles). I am 6' and 168 lbs. I use this when I ride with cycling shorts. I've tried many saddles, including many of the Body Geometry saddles, and this is better for me. However, for around town, when you're not wearing bike shorts i'd recommend the Pure V Team (wider, more padding, heavier).

              Comments about Wilderness Trail Bikes Rocket V Team Saddle:

              Very narrow. The whale tale is uncomfortable. I'm 6'1" 200lbs and this didn't feel right. The edge where the leather meets the material the back is made of is irritating. I returned it after one day. still searching for the next saddle.
