Re: [RC] Skito Dryback vs Equipedic - Ericka Nelson
ok, here is what i know. I rode in a wintec
that absolutly slipped off the skito pad and i had to put the drawer liner in
between and it worked great.
I had a conversation just last nite with a friend
of mine who rides a torsion with the sympa-nova underside, and it works great
with his equipedic. His wife, however, had a fleece lining on her torsion
and it slipped on the equipedic. (she sold her torsion, didn't work for
her).
I am currently using the skito dryback with
torsion/sympanova and no slipping noted.
>Sympa-nova will hug the equipedic (cordura?) covering, but fleece
will slip right off.
I can honestly say this is not true. I have a Torision with a
fleece underside and an equipedic. This is the only combination I have
found to NOT slip around.
The
question would best be answered if you were to say what type of underside
your saddle has. Does it have the waffle underside known as sympa-nova on
the Torsion? Or is it fleece? Sympa-nova will hug the equipedic
(cordura?) covering, but fleece will slip right off. (At one time, i put
waffle weave drawer liner inbetween a slippy saddle and the pad.) Skito
dryback will hug onto your fleece saddle. I am hoping to oder a equipedic
soon for my Torsion Trekker with sympa-nova underside. I currently use a
skito dry back that is just not quite the right cut for the new saddle,
my own fault, bought it out of the sale bin at AERC for mt Albion. (Which
is for sale by the way!) That is what I know, hope it helps. Except
that you have to order the special cut for treeless saddles, where the
foam slips in from the front edge. But you probably already! knew that
