Cam had no creaking related to his bolts coming loose and I certainly could put my experience down to a combo of loose bolts + our very dry dusty conditions.
I think replaceable rails are brilliant. And now that my bolts are locked in tight I love the Sagma.
That said, in reference to the number of customer complaints about loose bolts, I turn wrenches part time and the % of bikes with throttle-loose lock-on grips (that I can pull straight off the bar) is shocking. The one Sagma I’ve seen through the shop had very loose bolts as well (no creaking) and it’s hard not to draw the conclusion that it would be the same for any saddle someone actually took a T-25 tool to.
That’s very sweet if it’s solved for later production runs because the saddle rides brilliantly and the potential for shapes with this design is almost unlimited. But at this time I’d stand by my recommendation to ditch the multiple rates and really lock(tite) that hardware down.
Thanks for your open and honest comments Sacki!
