ISM PN 3.1 Elite and non Elite

Triathlon Forum

Hi all,

Anybody know what the difference between the ISM PN 3.1 and PN 3.1 Elite is? Any feedback on either of them?

Thanks.

I upgraded from a pretty old fizik traditional long nose tri saddle which really I persevered on for years, now on the pn 3.1 which I found to be way better and wish I’d done so years ago. Upgraded the bike recently and had it built with the same saddle. No numbness and feel my sit bones well planted.

I don’t know myself but there is a staff answer to a question on Wiggle -

The Elite model has a ventilated chassis to keep you cool.

Thanks for the replies. Haven’t found any solid explanations. Since the elite is 50$ cheaper,I’ll try my luck. Will report back if anything is noteworthy.

The chassis looks exactly the same. And there is no separate “elite” model on the ISM website. It could just be a change in naming from one model year to the next.

Never heard of a pn 3.1 elite. ISM doesn’t have anything about an elite version on their website. Where are you seeing an elite version? I know there’s been knock off’s of their saddles so be sure you are purchasing a real one.
