I have the newer cobb flow max and really enjoy it. I was coming from a hard basic road saddle and it has made a huge difference. If you like the typhoon then I'd say check out the cobb 55 JOF which is very similar but narrower at the nose. Makes a nice difference with comfort.

After trying a lot of saddles it seems I've settled on an ISM road with the nose zip tied.

Tried the JOF: much firmer than any ISM saddle I've ever sat on. Maybe it will work for you but it was very uncomfortable for me.

A lot of guys have moved to the Randee, I've yet to hear a negative toward it.

Why not call the guys tomorrow and talk to them for a bit. They're great about helping you figure out which saddle is likely best to work out for you, and of course you've got 90 days to decide. (903) 253-8555

I can't say enough about the ISM Attack. If ridden in the position it was designed for (i.e. quite far forward on it) it has been an absolute dream on both my tri and road bikes. Great quality too after a year or so and about 8000km on each of my two bikes.

ISM prologue is an excellent saddle

Why would you zip tie the nose?

+1 on the ISM prologue for a TT bike- love mine on my tri bike. I have a Selle Italia SLS Flow on my road bike and really like that one as well.

I've got the JOF & am very happy with it. I think the only thing that could improve is during climbing the saddle may be a *tad* wide when sitting up, but awesome in the aero position. Now that the Randee has come out, I may try to switch to that one or try it out on demo to see if that clears the sitting up issue. Other than that, the JOF is the most comfortable saddle I've used & I'm not getting numbnuts any more. Never thought I'd like the cut-out saddles, but they are a game changer in comfort.

Well the great thing about Cobb saddles is that you can always try them out for free for 90 days and if they don't workout you can send it back. Tough to beat that.

100% and 90 days is very generous. To be fair to the 55 JOF the profile of the saddle was nice, no chafing, just too firm for me.

Zip tie the rails under the nose. It narrows it up a bit and tapers it a bit as well. For me it results in a as close to a perfect saddle as I've found.

I started with a Selle Italia "Normal" saddle, then 2x ISM (Race and Prologue, I think), then Cobb V-Flow Max. I now ride a Specialized Sitero. Go figure.

But your arse is probably a bit different to mine.

Best thing you can do is go for saddles with a long return period, and failing that keep them very clean to maintain a decent resale price!!
