Noseless Saddle (Seat)

[Deleted member 1258]

Come across this, on another forum, tonight http://www.ecdsports.com/
Looks weird to me. Any one seen these before? what do you people think of them? Now as a high mileage cyclist who has never had problems with numb nuts syndrome I don't see the advantage, but I can see them being attractive to those who are new to cycling and those having problems but is there any advantage to using them?

Theory sounds good, but I'd be wary of lack of transverse stability and control. There is nothing to grip with your thighs.

Looks like its meant mainly for racing, the ecdsports looks like its mainly for leisure riding, there's a whole host of strange saddles here http://www.healthycycling.org/
