Charge Spoon

[Deleted member 20519]

My Charge Spoon saddle arrived today. I haven't been able to give it a proper test yet but only a short ride. All I can say is that it's very comfortable, it feels solid, it looks good and it's really good value for money. Wiggle.co.uk are doing it for £15 + free next day delivery if you order before 2pm.

Looks great, is it real leather?

Packaging says it's 'Synthetic Leather.'

That'll be a no then

Hope you enjoy your new saddle.

I think they make real leather ones too, but they cost more. Regardless, they're great saddles.

Your ass will be ever so gratefully to you for choosing a charge spoon

100% happy with mine. Think I've done about 1500 miles on it, still looks as new and my backside is 100% functional

Thanks guys It's a bit firmer because I'm used to a cushiony saddle but that hurts after around 10 miles. Is this a good guide for adjusting it? http://www.jimlangley.net/crank/bikefit.html

I would say that that guide is pretty good. Like every adjustment, tweak it by small amounts until you are happy.

I have a Spoon and just love it.

Sorry to hijack your thread, that's a useful guide.

How do I adjust seat angle?

Just loosen the seat bolt, put a spirit level across the seat lengthways and level it.

+1 - and remember to make sure the surface the bike is on is level too, Sometimes it helps to put a large book flat on the saddle too, and put the level on that.
