Now I know the world's gone mad!

A 650b specific saddle ... really? If you're having clearance issues between your wheel and tyre, can't you just fit a smaller saddle, maybe even one off a 26" wheeled bike? Or maybe it points to a poor frame / suspension design in the first place?

I know we've already seen 29er specific saddles but I'm surprised anyone has been daft enough to try the whole specific saddle nonsense again.

Sadly, I imagine they'll sell loads :roll:

If they'd just said, we had the saddle rub at full compression, here's an option, fine but this. .. :roll:

I'd go with that one.

At the risk of pointing out the(one of many!!!) obvious, does one have to have an operation to ensure ones @rse doesn't rub once one has "blown through" ones suspension? :roll:
