thanks! For me the fizik volta it'ts the more comfortable saddle I ever had, I can change the position many times while running and it stays comfy. More, I like the style, in some way classic and futuristic at the same time. Now I put it on my road bike and it's still wonderful. If you want to see some other photos, look for the french runner Philippe Gilbert on google. It changes the style of any bike, not everybody loves it, but the result it's always a more aggressive bike, in my opinion. Good riding!
