I was on the trainer with headphones on and noticed that the saddle seemed higher than normal. When I finished I looked at it and it appeared to be tilted upwards and that's when I noticed the cracks at the rails. I've been using it since ~June and it's been fine until nowJackRussellRacing wrote: ↑Sun Sep 30, 2018 10:07 amI'm same weight and haven't seen/heard anything like this on my 2 different Lupina carbon w/round rails (using standing Pinarello mount). Did you hear it creaking before removal and inspection?
Cool, I sent them an email.. maybe I can get both swapped with oval rails next time just in case (haven't ridden on the other one). I'd be happy to pay for shipping

Hey. Anyone riding any of the berk saddles that we’re riding flite titanium’s (original shape) or fizik aliantes ( Also original shape)
Which model berk have you tried or is working well ?? Or didn’t work out at all ??

Length of my 150 Lupina padded is right at 28cm, width of the nose pretty close to the end (it continues to taper down a little) is around 35-36mm using calipers.
Any report yet?marek wrote: ↑Thu Sep 27, 2018 6:49 pmJust received custom made Dila saddle. I've asked for possibly lightest version with "grippy" surface to prevent sliding.
First impression: stunning build quality, very clean. Great piece of craftmanship and engineering. Jure fullfiled the task in 100%. See the photos.
Looking forward to ride it over the weekend. I'll report how it actually performs.
I see the nose width is listed at 60mm (not sure at what point measured, but wider than the Lupina). Would love to hear a report.
Got to compliment Berk on going above and beyond.
Contacted Jure about the type of padding he uses on his saddles as was looking to cover one of mine. Was just enquiring about density or if there was a brandname I could find locally. Instead they to send some to em if I covered shipping to australia (15 euro). When the package turned up there was enough to pad 3 saddles with 3 pieces of leather included as well. Incredible. Couldn't buy the stuff here for that price. Thanks again.

First ride yesterday on the Berk Dila padded. came from Prologo C3 and inmediadely I noticed the lower pressure overall. bit of a problem with the wide nose to turn my sitbones down forward. I lowered the nose a bit and goin to try again. Overal comfort is far greater than any saddle I have ridden before (Selle Italia Flite, SLR, Fizik K:ONE, Arione, Antares 00)
