Great for distance cycling and triathlons, ISM's Prologue features a longer length and a narrower hamstring section to allow more forward and rearward body movement. This unique seat also has ISM's split-nose design with a large cutaway to eliminate pressure and increase your pedaling efficiency. And, ISM integrates the sloped front arms to prevent chafing on the inner thighs. Plus they amply pad this sweet seat with foam and gel padding for top comfort. You also get long chromoly rails for plenty of fore/aft adjustment, a spot for hooking the seat on the bike rack during triathlon transitions and this fine seat meets or exceeds the rules of road racing and triathlon too.

I honestly thought about giving up cycling after learning about the issues typical saddles can cause for men. Saddles without any nose, do not allow for control while riding and I wanted something that would not restrict blood flow while also giving performance. I ran across ISM after considering WTB. ISM has the data and studies to show that blood flow is preserved. Because the saddle places more of the weight on the sit bones I have been sore in those areas. The bottom line is it looks different, but does what it is suppose to. The saddle is the most personal choice on a bike so what works for one person will not for the next. I think this is a great product though.(my LBS has this saddle as a road saddle but ISM recommends it for MTB as well).
