SQ Lab 60X Infinity and 614 Ergowave saddle reviews: Science based butt savers from Germany

Bought my first SQlab saddle few weeks ago, 612 active. Extremely comfortable for how hard it is. I`ve never had a hard saddle this good. I`ve tried many popular models like Specialized Power, Fabric Scoop, Ergons, Fiziks etc.

Ok danke

Thank you for your review! After watching the video, I thought that this could be the saddle of my dreams. I went to a bike shop and asked for a SQlab 60X saddle for testing. Unfortunately I have to return it. Didn't work for me. First of all, the saddle is great to sit on for a while, but after 30 minutes it starts to numb heavily. The saddle is too soft to sit and the pressure starts to build up in the soft tissue. The edge of the saddle is too hard and creates pressure on the outer edge as well. In this saddle, all the negative things are realized quickly because it's too soft.

Finding the correct leveling and fore-aft is key. Once dialed they are great

I find that if I ride 3 times per week or more, the SQLabs is easily the best saddle I've used. However they do have a hard surface, if I can only manage 2 good rides per week, then the Ergon is just a more forgiving and comfortable place to sit.
Also, I find that the tape surface on the 60X grips my shorts more than I like. I find the more traditional smooth covering far more comfy.

I did LEJOG with one ,& found it nothing special to be honest ,even though it was for my size it caused bad chaffing . I've tried loads & the one that works for me is the specialized 3d power saddle .

I discovered the miracle cure that is Brooks B17 saddles a couple of years back, after decades of saddle discomfort on longer rides (> 40 miles). However, I don't want to put a Brooks on my hardtail - not a great look on a hardtail, plus more likely to get wet/muddy on MTB rides.

I've been looking at SQLab for a while now. I already have two of their 30X bars and two sets of their 410 innerbarends , and am impressed with their science. Will likely go with the 60X or 610, Infinergy either way.

Great saddles! Super hard wearing as well

Thanks for reviewing and discussing a topic that doesn't get talked about enough, when the Godfather of mtb's speaks I always listen 👌

I got an Ergon Enduro SM or some such to replace the stock Specialized saddle. It didn't work out all that well so I had to go back to the Specialized one. I was thinking to try SQLab, but am concerned about having to get a correct width measurement and the price.

What’s the dog deodorant for on your work bench?

Looks like they’d be good for the old prostate.

Love my 60X saddle and 30X handlebars! SQLabs knows what they are doing 🎉

I was thinking of getting an ergon saddle, but these look right up my alley

I have the x60 in 150mm it is abit wide for steep stuff but all day peddling it’s ace. A bit expensive like.

What? I love it, total disregard for just looking good!
