Ergon

This has a little stretch, so it was easier to wrap for me. I don't like overly thick tapes, but still need some cushion and this works. One star off for showing some abrasion after one season. Fairly easy to clean.

I purchased the Ergon SR Allroad saddle to replace the Brooks Carved Cambium that my bike fitter said wasn't working out for me. They suggested the Ergon and I couldn't be happier. I ride the M/L size and the fit is so good for me that I now have three of the same model on different bikes. They just work for my anatomy and Ergon makes a good product. I probably have over 500 miles on my original saddle and if I were to compare it to a new saddle, I'd be hard pressed to make a distinction between them.

I bought the Ergon Allroad Core on sale since I am skeptical of most gimmicky claims. When it arrived it felt just like my other Ergon saddles so didn't really expect much. Finally installed it and went and rode a 3hr chatter-fest road with new gravel dropped.

I am not certain what is in the 'Core' padding but it does take the high frequency chatter away. If was lighter would give it 5 stars. Would confidently buy another full price.

I've tried 7-8 different saddles before ending up on the SR Allroad and am glad I gave it a try! Ergon has me between sizes with an 11.9 sitbone width and I chose to go S/M and think that was the right choice since I've never felt more comfortable on a ride. There have been no pressure points or sit bone pain in the 300 miles I've had the saddle for. Only time will tell if this is a durable saddle or not since it has a foam core that is my only worry with it so far.
