Chromag Lynx DT trail saddle


SO GOOD
Sitting on the Lynx DT is like slipping on to your favourite bar stool – it’s that comfy! The padding is softer and thicker than most, which makes long days out a doddle.

The lengthy profile means this comfort doesn’t come at the cost of technical manoeuvrability. It’s a fantastic seat for longer-legged trail bikes and riders who want to recover on the climbs rather than attack them.

NO GOOD
With chromoly rails, the Lynx DT is the portliest saddle here at 295g. We also found that after several gritty winter rides the colour began to scuff off the lower sections – disappointing at this price.

PRICE 95$

Merida Big Seven 100

We've rolled up to our local woods, with a meandering blue trail, some natural wooded tracks and a bit of fire road chucked into the mix to see how the Big Seven 100 tackles trails that entry-level riders are likely to cut their teeth on.
