If you're in the market for a new saddle, I highly recommend the Koobi PRS. I lost a bike in a bad
encounter with a car. Once it was replaced and I had recovered, I moved to an area where the roads
are quite rough, but the traffic count is quite low. The Koobi PRS has an elastomer suspension
system, but it's not a big, clunky thing at all. It comes from the Italian factory that makes Selle
Italia saddles. It's got a groove all the way down the center for your privates. That makes it a tad
wider than, say, a Selle Italia Flite. But it's not a big deal. I tried one of the Specialized body
geometry saddles a while back and it was so wide it chaffed my thighs. No such problem with the
Koobi. And those little elastomers really do the trick in taking the sting out of those rough roads.
It's been a really awesome saddle from mile one.
Just thought I'd share that. I know people want to know about saddles all the time. I also know it's
a very personal thing. But I've read many raves about the Koobi saddles and I can now vouch for the
quality and performance of the PRS.
FWIW, Bob C.
