In praise of the SQLab seat.

It took a few days of fiddling last season to find the set spot of tilt and setback. So then winter and four months off the bike. I do my first ride of the season on easy trails in Squamish. Feels fine but normally for me the next ride will see me standing a lot. Not this time. Next ride it’s a tiny bit uncomfortable, as is sore butt, but only for ten minutes. Next couple rides it’s all normal. Gotta like that. I think it’s the 611 with the squishy bits out back in a 13 cm width.

Glad you got yours to work out. I never could get along with mine. I think I was probably in between their sizing (I also ordered a 13cm). Moved onto a BikeYoke Sagma and am fairly happy with it.

I have two SQLab 611s. Great saddles.

Specialized isn't my first choice brand in general, but their saddles caress my netherparts like the sun kisses the flower.

SQ Labs, while comfy and good, always felt a bit to me like a robot optimized what a human would like against their butt.
