Sella italia Mono link review

 Now this is my first review so bear with me. I am not a big fan of reviews as they tend to be a bit biased so were to start? Saddles that suits me won't mean it will be the right one for you so a tests seem daft but here goes. Having quite large thighs and tend to favor a narrow saddles I decided to test  Sella Italia,s monolink saddle.We have two demo/test saddles inc 27.2 & 31.6 seat posts in the store . I am riding a compact frame which has a lot of seat post sticking out offering a bit of extra comfort. In the shop attaching the saddle onto the post and setting up was child's play just a 4 mm allen key. I found the guide they use on the top of the saddle didn't suit me and ended up moving it back for a better fit.
 Now the down side of my test, the seat post. Why bond a alloy tube to a carbon head as this seems to be a weak point and on this one it came loose. You can of course buy a full carbon post. Speaking to the suppliers I was told this is the first time they have heard of this and it would be replaced straight away so hopefully it is a one off. The plus side of this is I spent 90 mins sat permanently on the saddle hoping the top would not pop off which it didn't even after trying to pull it off at the end of my ride. The first thing I found (or didn't ) was no rubbing on the inside of my leg's,as the nose of the saddle is quite narrow, now I have never found this a problem before but this was amazing, Sue my wife also found it great as well and she has slim leg's (I put that in for brownie points) I even found myself spinning a lower gear than normal.
 Monolink what do I think? Its a great idea can't wait to try it out on a longer run when we get that replacement post. As I said it may not suit everyone so you can try before you buy, but you may have to pry this one off me first.
