My new saddle arrived today. The Butterfly II has a few small but significant changes. Besides being built to ANSI/OSHA specs there are some functional differences. The bridge is made like the one that I put tegether for my BFI. Very much like the ART bridge. Webbing with shackles. Tonight I'll be outfitting the new one with gear. Over the weekend I hope to use it at the ISA Field Day Event.

Not picking, seriously just curious, but what else is different about it other than the bridge and color??

Keep us informed how you like the performance and feel after climbing in it.:)
 
well dont keep us in suspense tom,post apic of your set up wont ya
or is it top secret:p
 
im in need of a saddle in a hurry actually.
i had planned on waiting to see the edelrid, but as that aint forthcoming i might have to get the butterfly or maybe the dragonfly
 
The b2 seems to be a great saddle, Nearly an exact remake of the B1.
I'm waiting to try on the New edelrid come TCIA, Strasser was sporting the saddle, and it appears to be a really nice piece of equip. Can't wait to try it on.
 
I finally got my Butterfly II saddle set up and I got a chance to use it yesterday on a small prune job. This saddle is real nice! Not the nut cruncher that the Master saddle is. The weight is evenly placed on the waist and the legs. I have some fine adjustments to make. I think this saddle is a keeper!
