An inflatable saddle might seem like a strange idea, but we were quite impressed by the Racing 1.1.
It features a small air bladder that is inflated or deflated by a seatpost-mounted pump, and in use it turned out to be one of the most comfortable saddles in the test.
The bladder is removable, although without it the saddle is way too saggy for performance use, and during our testing it took almost two days for it to lose a noticeable amount of air pressure.
A novel idea well executed, and, more importantly, it works.
