Verdict: a really comfy performance saddle for long distance, however, comes at a premium price.


I bought this in 2017 and have found it to be an excellent saddle for mountain biking, gravel riding and multi-day bikepacking trips on roads.

 

The PR 2.0 saddle features a split nose design, which allows the rider to sit comfortably without putting any pressure on sensitive soft tissues. The saddle also has a large cut-out in the centre that further relieves pressure on the perineum area, reducing the risk of numbness and discomfort.

 

The PR 2.0 saddle has a foam and gel padding that provides enough cushioning to be comfy, reducing the impact of road vibrations and shocks. The saddle is also designed to support the sit bones, allowing the rider to maintain a comfortable position on the bike for extended periods.

 

The PR 2.0 saddle is available in different sizes and is compatible with most bike types, including road bikes, mountain bikes, and triathlon bikes. The saddle also features high-quality construction materials, such as titanium alloy rails and a carbon fibre base, that ensure its durability and longevity.

 

Overall, the ISM PR 2.0 Saddle is a high-performance bike saddle that prioritises rider comfort and is suitable for riders who want to reduce pressure and discomfort during long rides.
