Saddle

I would have preferred it with the gray middle section instead of white, but these seem to be in short supply and I had to take what was available.

What size did you get?
How did you decide on size?
I ordered the medium in black to try.

Just to add to these questions, where did you both end up buying your saddles?

I ordered from Amazon as it is easy to return.
BikeInn has it the cheapest I think.

Thanks @Stefan Mikes I used this selector. I was doing it kind of blindly. It shows I am borderline small/medium and medium/large.
I ordered larger size. Got it today. Felt a bit pressure on my inter thighs close to the seat bone. I think this tells me it is a bit too big for me.
will be trying the smaller size.
I was reading the reviews and someone said after 30km or so the softness of the saddle turns into harder feel and was complaining about numbness.
anyone has experienced this?

Had no chance yet. I've been riding the Trance E+ with Selle Royal eZone for the last couple of days. (Good saddle but not perfect). Now, it is the time to ride the Vado with the Ergon saddle!

Wonder what would happen if you took a big cruiser saddle, took out the stuffing from the rear, inserted two softball sized rubber balls that had the hole so they could be aired up or down with a needle and tire pump, inserted them into the seat and adjusted air pressure so you would be riding on a cushion of air. Kind of an air-it-up saddle.

Has anyone made such a saddle?

Complete with authentic "synthetic leather"

...but it's out of stock. Dang

Seems like s good idea. Wonder how well it works, or how long a $30 saddle will last.

hard to pass up Italian leather.

I have used this for a seat cushion. Very comfortable and breaths well, and there are different thicknesses available. Think would make a great bike seat if it wasn’t so bulky.

That brand name wouldn’t attract everybody in Sweden.
Bög is a Swedish word for gay or perhaps more like fag. It’s not a unique situation with a product name that is more or less impossible in certain countries. I don’t have any example but I recall reading about car models that absolutely needed new names for different market.

Yesterday I installed a Brooks Cambium C17 Carved. It was raining when I went for a test ride and my impressions from first ride are positive but I only rode 5 miles as my hand were cold in the rain.
Not sure I will have time for riding today but I will report later. I also intend to install a Redshift ShockStop seat post.

SRAM means "I'm shitting" in Polish... (literally and in the most rude form). That's why Polish cyclists pronounce the name "SRÆM"

I rode my Vado with the Ergon ST Core Prime saddle today. Delightful! The first saddle ever that fits my bottom completely!

Assume you bought the large size. I will have my medium next week. Went out on the large Ergon yesterday. Agree very comfortable. Specially combined with Kinekt 2 suspension seat post. Much less vibration when compared with front handlebar with suspension fork.

I have about 150 miles on my Brooks B17. For the first 50 miles, it was uncomfortable as hell like sitting on concrete. But gradually, the pain started to go away and it's a lot more comfortable. Not sure whether it's the seat or my butt developed callouses.
