The Liberator Elite is designed for the elite touring rider who needs all-day comfort, demands premium features and wants the optimal balance of relief and saddle weight. This saddle has a wider cutaway than the other Liberators, providing additional relief for longest distances and a thin gel layer along top of saddle provides an additional level of comfort. It also features a premium leather cover for durability, with a shaped rear reflective panel for enhanced visibility in low light. You'll note that the Elite also has a narrower profile, but doesn't sacrifice on comfort. It's a wonderful choice for serious touring riders.
