If you are considering purchasing this saddle for short races, then go for it. Otherwise, I recommend looking elsewhere. After tinkering the positioning and height of the saddle several times across multiple bike fits, I can confidently say this saddle is very stiff and considerably uncomfortable after an hour of seated riding. If you are thinking about buying this saddle to rind for hours on end on the road, then please consider other options first.
It's racy and light, so set expectations starting from there. It's quite firm, and I find it a bit uncomfy after 3-4 hours. I like the flat rear shape that lifts up my sitbones, it's a style that works well for me. It's very light, very expensive, and I don't find it to be a great value for me. I wish they'd made the 3D padding 1mm thicker. I have other 3d saddles and all are much softer (some too soft).
