Volt Cromoly Saddle

Sweet saddle

Familiarity:

I've used it several times

I bought a new MTB about a year ago and the OEM saddle that came with it simply sucked. So, I bought and tested a couple of after market ones that were more expensive than this WTB saddle. Both also sucked. I re-researched online and decided to give this saddle a shot with my fingers crossed. Man, I am glad that I didn’t waste any more money. This saddle is perfect for my bottom. Its flat profile at the top and subtle cushion work support my bony bottom well. The microfiber cover is smooth and has a pretty good grip but it attracts dirt. I need to use a soft brush to remove dirt from pores on the saddle. I’ll stick with this saddle for all my future bikes.

Came stock, but loved it

I've put it through the wringer

I bought an Ibis Exie, and due to stock issues, this saddle was swapped in as a replacement for the Silverado. Once I built it up, I wanted to ride the Exie immediately and kept the stock saddle on for that ride. I'm glad I did. It's great! It is the only padded saddle I can even stand to ride long in. I have swapped all my MTBs over to this saddle and am seriously considering swapping all my bikes over. I'm a saddle snob and honestly shocked that a 'cheap' saddle would become my favorite.

This saddle is very comfortable. First time I have purchased a wide seat. Should have done it years ago.

The Volt is my second attempt at finding a suitable saddle for my gravel bike. I like it because it is affordable with just the right amount of cushioning. The chromoly rails seemed like the perfect choice for my chromoly bike. I went with a size medium and I would say it is a perfect fit for my 6’1” 175lbs frame. The saddle feels equally good when riding in the drops and on the hoods. At first, I wasn’t too impressed. However, I started to micro adjust each time I took the bike out and finally found the sweet spot. So, if an open saddle isn’t your cup of tea, I would definitely recommend giving the Volt a try.

My Bum is in Love

Best seat ever. Might not be something weight nuts would love or Racers would want but for someone that goes on 2-3 hour single track rides 1 or 2 times a week, it is perfect. I have a medium width on my enduro bike and the wide on my hardtail. So smart of me, so smart.
