Yes, I use one and have done for a few years now.
The dropped nose does look very weird and does take a little time to get used to.
Not everyone finds them comfortable though, so best try one first before you purchase.
It's probably the most comfortable saddle that I use.

having contacted various saddle makers re saddles recommended for prostate suffers and looks like will be going with Selle smp drakon or lite 209 after the 2 week trial period they offer . will advise more once tried

Me gots two that I use. Luvs 'em loads :wub:

I use the TRK on my 'tank' and commuter bikes and the Dynamic on my road bike. Not sure I could use any other brand now. The saddle design suits me perfectly.

Edited to add: I've just researched the Hybrid and see that they come in different colours. A purchase could be in order :whistle:

Due to new bike (and new saddle) I hadn't used the old bike with the Selle SMP since August. I used it last weekend for the Sunday London Ride. And bblimey it was like sitting on your favourite old armchair. It is a great saddle.
