Re: Re: Re: free&easy saddle/ was saddle fit HELP



I 'think' there are differences in the panel design, the main differences to
me though were as follows:

a. saddles a 'conventional gp in shape which suits my style of riding and
they are much lighter than other makes with flat panels

b. UK manufacturer who is very responsive if users have any problems ( I had
a minor one re a velcro tab which he is replacing for free) where as if I
ordered an orthaflex it would have to be shipped to the states and I gather
( yes Im depending on rumour) that Orthaflex arent that proactive, and

c. Orthaflexs over here start at £ 950 + for their synthetic ( roughly $
1300)  where as my saddle was £670!

p.s. I promise I'll stop boring every one about my wonderful saddle now!
