Afternoon guys...

I'm after a seat i can use/ride without making some sodding creaking noise. As with most people i've been running a Spoon, but the things start creaking on me after about 4 rides. It seems to creak from the front end where the rails are meeting the seat... A little lube in there sometimes sorts it.. but only short term.

So i'm after a silent seat. Non I-beam type.

Selle Italia SLR XP Ltd Edition Saddle

Is currently topping the list due to good reviews... but i'm up for anything... i don't even mind that much about comfort... i just want silence.

If you get some rear suspension it will smooth out the ride and stop your seat from creaking 😛

fwiw SDG bel air is a comfy non squeaker for me.

I don't even mind paying £100 LOL. It would be worth it for the silence.
