If you have one, do you have it level? Just got mine & seems like I’m sliding off the front & having to push back up onto the seat. Same position as the Airione2 I had (it was measured at the shop to put me in the same position). I’m thinking the front of the “prongs” (not really prongs like Adamo/Cobb), get pushed down from my weight (150 lbs) when sitting on it. There is no seat shell right under those prongs like a normal saddle, so lack of support when sitting on it causes me to slip?
Do you have the nose pointed upward some to counter the lack of seat shell there? With the compression of material I don’t think pointing it upwards some would change pelvic tilt to cause issues that much…
Or maybe the shorts I used were just too slippery of lycra…
I’m testing one right now. I have the seat level currently. I don’t find myself slipping off of it like the Dash saddles I’ve tried (which I also ran the nose level on), but I do move a little on it. I’m usually only on that bike one or twice a week, so I’ll have to pay more attention this weekend when I’m riding it.
I’ve been riding one for a few weeks. I’ve found that when it’s level, the “prongs” to the extent they are prongs, dig into the either side of my privates. I’ve recently tilted it down slightly and it is better. I do not have that falling off the front of the saddle sensation I had with the sitero though
I had the same problem. My end conclusion was it was an amazing saddle for up to 1 hour rides but anything past that and I’d rather be on something else.
FWIW… I’m on an Attack now and would only consider the JOF 55 if I tried anything else but I think that is too narrow for me.

I had the same sensation initially - but my fitter had set it up with the rear of the seat level, rather than the front of the seat level. After we did that, the sensation more or less went away. Did take me a bit to get used to though.
