Description
A New Dimension In Comfort & Performance
Introducing the Prologo Dimension 143 Saddle, outfitted with a short nose design and a pressure-relieving cutout, along with a wider seating area to distribute weight.
The name Dimension contains the importance of the project itself: to create an innovative product in terms of size, design, and ergonomic shape suitable for all disciplines and perfect for men and women. Dimension is comfort, performance, and lightness.
The combination of a short nose (35mm less than a traditional saddle) and the PAS system ensures blood flow and pressure relief, guaranteeing comfort even in an aerodynamic position or during the maximum pushing phase.
The wider seating area (width 143mm) allows a better distribution of body weight. The Dimension saddle has been tested and developed in collaboration with the best international professional teams to ensure a saddle suitable for all users.

Reviews
This saddle broke within less than a year of using it on the road and under normal conditions. The rail of the saddle detached from the shell and causes flexing and squeaking (making it unrideable). Things happen, I get it, but Prologo has outright refused to accept any warranty on the product. You have to register with Prologo first to get a warranty, but 2 months later they have yet to "approve" my warranty. I've emailed them many times and have gotten one question back, asking where I purchased it and no follow up. Buyers in the US beware, Prologo doesn't seem interested in honoring warranties. Last Prologo product I will ever purchase.
To BTD's credit, they offered to help, but Prologo is a dubious proposition for US customers.
I have used 3 different "pro-grade" Specialized Saddles (SS) in the 143 mm width for the past 15 years or so, and they were all very similar in the shape and feel to the Prologo Dimension, other than the Prologo which has a short nose. The first SS rail broke, and was replaced under warranty, the second SS saddle plastic base broke and was not warranted. The third SS is going strong and feels very similar to my new Dimension saddle, which has just a bit of padding...not too much.
Having a seatpost with a bolt in front and one in the back allows getting the seat angle correct for your comfort and they don't slip like some single bolt posts.
My first experience with a Prologo saddle so I was a bit wary when I ordered this item. I previously used a Selle San Marco Era followed by a Fizik Arione. The Selle San Marco provided me with years of pain-free riding but finally wore out and is no longer available. I had high hopes for the Fizik Arione but it simply did not match my backside and became increasingly uncomfortable. Based on glowing reviews from several of the major cycling websites, I decided to give the Prologo a try even though I had never ridden a short-nosed saddle with a wider width than I was used to. Within a few miles, I knew this saddle was for me--firm yet supremely comfortable. Short-nosed design means if you like to shift your seating position during different phases of your ride--I don't--then it's not for you. My rides are typically 40 - 60 miles long. During the summer months I'll ride three to four times a week. I'm a small-to-medium framed individual weighing about 130 pounds. Other pluses: very lightweight and the saddle seems well-made. I'm very happy with this saddle and cycling is a joy again.
I've been riding for many years and have tried many different saddles. This one is my favorite and most comfortable. Very popular saddle at my local bike shop. I have the same saddle for my road bike, so I bought this one for my indoor bike.
