    Does anyone here use a Koobi saddle ? I was tempted to buy one but was put off by delivery hassle (from the US, had to go to my home addy, I wouldn't be there to pick it up, trip to the Post Depot yawwwwn).

    Alternatively, if anyone has another recommendation that I might pick up on Wiggle I'd be grateful.

    It's going on my road bike (Cannondale), nothing too punishing but not vicar-bike-esque (I guess, something like a Koobi).

    Thanks

    Don't use them myself but a friend of mine got the Koobi to replace the standard one which came with his Boardman and he was all praise for it.

    Other obvious one is the Brooks ...

    But the charge saddle from wiggle get's good reviews and is very cheap at the price .. I believe they have expanded their range as well now ... and do 2 saddles ... :D ... I am thinking of one myself come the new year.

    Currently have specialised body geometry saddles on both my bikes .. and they are comfy ... I believe you can get them in cycleways ... but a lot cheaper in the US if you are going there ... haven't seen them on Wiggle or CRC

    Got one about 12 months ago now. PRS Century - after providing things like approx weight, hours in saddle during a normal week etc thats what they recommended. I like the saddle - a little wear and tear after about 4000km roughly. Its a pretty good saddle IMHO - very light
    Id zero problems ordering and getting it delivered to work. UPS.
