Wanted to love this saddle (and I love the Arione), but just couldn't get a long with it. It was too hard with both inserts, and left me with a sore bum every time (145 lbs / 65kg). I ran it for a good 1000km, before returning to the Arione. Did not like the plastic edges as much either, and would drive me nuts that if you ever leaned the bike on the edge of the saddle against a wall it was so slippy because of the plastic (minor gripe, I know). Bit of a pig weight-wise too, which I was OK with as long as it resulted in enhanced comfort, which it did not. Should also be noted how expensive it is. I would definitely recommend that anyone interested get a loaner/demo saddle before spending the money on this. I thought it was going to be an easy sell based on my experience with the Arione because they share the same shape, but I was mistaken.
