Thinking of buying an on one bignose saddle for distance work as my current saddle is not the best. £20 at the moment, any comments? Cost is a priority .

I had one and thought it was okay ... until I ended up sat on it for 6+ hours, after which time I'd have been very happy to sling it over the nearest hedge. I think FOR ME there's too much padding which is quite soft ... Charge Spoon solved the problems, much to the relief of my 'sack weld'

I have found Charge Spoon's advertised at the same price so think i'll opt for one of them.

Hold that, wiggle is doing them for £14.99 post free, now ordered. :)

In our house we have 5 Charge Spoons, three are the older versions with the dimples, two have the newer smooth finishes.
Both of the new versions are rippling near the nose and one has worn through the "leather" in three ride's so It's going back to the distributers on monday for a warranty claim.
The older ones look a bit grubby nowadays but are free from defects after 3 years.
Try get an older variant if you can.

The add says 2011 model but picture shows dimples, will keep my fingers crossed and see what arrives.

Flatfishy, when you say dimples do you mean holes?

I had a Spoon the other year, destroyed Lycra shorts, went to Selle Italia from on-one sale no trouble.

The lower white one has dimples the top white, doesn't.

OK, will just have to see what arrives, thanks.

Hi folks, charge spoon saddle arrived today and dimpled it is, :) ,just hope it doesn't destroy lycra, :( . 3 hour ride and seems ok so far but only a full day in the saddle will tell me if it's comfy. Thanks for the advice everyone.
