i’ve had the nomad for a few years now (almost five) and it did have a bit of a life before i became its custodian. no wonder then that a few of the parts are now at the end of their useful life.

time for new parts: i needed a new saddle and a new set of pedals. pedals were an easy choice, i just replaced one set of mallet e with exactly the same type.

the saddle was a more difficult decision. i don’t think the type i had on the bike for the last few years is still in production, so i got the one every review calls (one of) the most comfortable saddles on the market.

is it as good as they say? i don’t know, there is not much sitting on send helen’s but i’ll find out in the next few days as nat and i prepare for our first tas gravity enduro.

still love that aqua / magenta theme. classic.
