Maybe 3 issues ago Cycling Plus reviewed some road saddles, there was one in particular that they loved, with the tester saying he didn't want to give it back - think it was from a relatively unknown brand. Can anyone remember what it was? (Mrs Moose has 'kindly' recycled my issue of the magazine)

Sister brand of charge called Fabric Saddles can't remember the particular variant they tried.

I had this mag and left it in a restaurant. I'm annoyed, as I'm on the hunt for a saddle and I found the review quite useful. I know what you mean about the unknown brand. If memory serves, an unknown won the test.

Hmmm, that doesn't ring a bell....I thought it had a "2 word name" if that makes sense. If memory servers me right the one I'm thinking of my not have won overall but there was definitely a line in there about their tester not wanting to give his back....

Buy it online again and read the review.

Hth, btw I really like my charge spoon and for the money they get good reviews.

Cheers - I'm one of the few people that actually doesn't get on with the Charge Spoon!

On looking at that Fabric again, think it is that one. Thanks all.

Yikes! Who named it that?!? Its like all the cycling buzz words rolled into one.

I have a ProLoggo Kappa that I am about to send back after an aborted bike build. I hope that I'm going to get on with the ProLoggo on the Cannondale SuperSix.

Arrived yesterday, fitted and took it on a 60mile test ride. Very impressed, superior comfort to the Selle Italia SLR it's replacing and still reasonably light at 180g.

Will need a few more rides to properly judge it but first impressions are good.
