Re: Specialized Sitero saddle [Toolmaker]
I was one of the first people that probably had a Sitero outside of some Specialized sponsored athletes. My bike fitter hooked me up with the one and only saddle their shop received before it went for sale to the public.

I definitely had to raise my seat post about 5mm to compensate for the lower profile of the Sitero compared to the Cobb I rode previously.

I had to slam it all the way forward due to the short rails.

It's dead level.

A lot of people get caught up in the firmness of the saddle. It's not padded well, no doubt about that, but it was still the most comfortable saddle I had ever used after going through countless saddles. I did three Ironman races in 11 months with the saddle and I never had an issue.

The saddle is not meant to be ridden in the sitting up position. It would make the worst road bike saddle ever made.

After two years of using the Sitero I'm currently trying out a Dash Stage saddle to see how I like it. I've always wanted to try one so I'm giving it a whirl. If it doesn't live up to the comfort level I had with the Sitero then the Sitero goes back on the bike.
