True, the Selle AnAtomicas do sag in a way that you don't see on Ideales
and Brooks.  That is entirely typical.  Some folks love the splayed out
sagged hammock feel, others do not.

[RBW] Inquiry re Sagging Selle AnAtomica

2011-05-23 Thread reynoldslugs
After just a few rides on a brand-new Selle Anatomica, it looks like
our old mule (Gladys) with a deeply swayed back.  The manufacturer's
website seems to say, don't worry about the way this looks, just
tighten it up a bit at a time until it's comfortable.

I'm willing to follow the manufacturer's advice, but i'm pretty
certain I've never seen a leather saddle sag and splay like this
anytime in the last 30+ years of riding Ideales and Brooks.  Moreover,
I have what is supposed to be the identical saddle (different color)
on my Roadeo, and have not had any sagging at all.

Anyone else experience this with the Anatomicas, or have words of
advice/wisdom?

FWIW, I'm a Clyde and this is their Clyde model, ostensibly.

thanks.
RL
