## Questions & Answers

**Q: I am looking for a women's specific ultra endurance saddle for an outie, to go on my mtb/gravel bike. will this saddle be comfortable for me?**
A: Its not women's specific and comfort is dependent on the individual riders anatomy.  People swear by ISM but I hate then.  I don't like prologo, but Fizik just seems to work for me.

**Q: I'm assuming its waterproof.  it doesn't specify in the description.  what do you guys think?  sorry if this is a dumb question.**
A: Yes it is waterproof

**Q: Where is it made?**
A: Made in Italy

**Q: Which width do i choose? there is no fit guide and i can’t find one online or on fizik’s website.**
A: To figure out what width you should purchase you need to measure the width of your sitbones. There are several ways of doing this just search online. However, the easiest way to do this by yourself is to place a piece of flat cardboard on a hard surface you can sit on that allows your knees to be bent at a 90ish degree angle. Sit ont the cardboard and your sitbones will make indentations in the cardboard. Once you have done this measure the distance between the centers of the two indents and add 20-25mm to this measurement. Once you have this measurement pick a seat that is close to this.

The problem with all saddles is that everyone's got a different bum. There is no one saddle fits all. Any rider knows that. I bought this after going through fizik's online selector tool. I believed I needed something with a good sized cut out due to the common gentlemen-parts pains - especially whilst riding on the turbo trainer. I can only say, fir me, it has solved that particular issue, and on recent 40 and 50 mile rides, it's been my legs that start complaining first, not my bum! I had thought the shorter nose may have been an issue when climbing as I tend to move forward in the saddle, but no. The build quality is excellent - as you'd expect from the brand.
