Glide vs Butterfly

[Sep]

I know their have been numerous posts about these two saddles, but I wanted some more recent comparisions of the two now that the glide has been out for a while.


Thanks Sep

Have the Glide, had considered the Butterfly and wish I had tried both first. I looks like the butterfly would have more lateral movement. Guess because all parts are replaceable on the glide had something to do with the choice.

It has become very friendly for me. And probably others would do the same.

i tried both and bought the glide also because of the ability to replace parts. i did re-thread the leg straps so that the buckles are on the outside of my thigh. i took an unexpected fall/swing of approx. 4' and didn't have any strange pinching or pressures. still fiddling with attachments and gear placement. considering suspenders for times when carrying a lot of gear.

Ya, suspenders! For me suspenders are a must on any saddle. (Buttless), if I have to go to the truck to get something the saddle is at my ankles befor I get there.

I've climbed in both,,,Everyday in my B-fly, and only briefly in the Glide,,, I'll stick w/ the B'fly,, I didn' t care for the glide b/c of the buckles aren't quite as smooth as the fly's, I had the buckle actually dig into my stomach and scrape me pretty good while doing a limb walk.
Anyone found suspenders for the bfly, ????
