610 Infinergy 170mm saddle great for large, heavy rider
I bought the SQ Lab 610 infinergy for my Salsa Fargo, and it's so comfortable. I just did a 3 hour ride yesterday on forest roads, and I swear it got more comfortable as the ride went on. I got the 170mm wide saddle for my 141mm wide sitbones, and I'm currently at 260lbs/118kg (working towards 225lb/102kg). The high density foam seems to mold around my sitbones without bottoming out, and the saddle wings flex just enough with the firm black elastomer. No perineum pressure at all. I've been riding a very expensive, big name brand, 3d printed saddle with titanium rails that felt good for about an hour, but then it would start to feel like I was sitting on two large marbles, one under each sit bone. After 4-5 hours, I'd take every opportunity to stand up on the pedals just to get some relief. Never had to do that on the SQLab 610 Infinergy. Only possible con of the Infinergy is it does feel warmer to sit on, probably because it's one inch of thick foam. A small price to pay to ride without pain.
