Pros: 
Tons of cushion, nice, flat profile, hook on nose fot transition racking. Neoprene cover on front of saddle
Cons: 
Heavy. Could be too much padding, depending on your taste. Rails are close to the shell on the forward part of the saddle, causing creaking noises if you slam your saddle back.

This is a full blown tri saddle. It's meant to be ridden on the nose, hence all the padding. If you ride a roadie or in a more upright position on your tri bike, this is likely not the saddle for you. Ride steep and low for long periods? Check this out.

It's a long saddle, but still shorter than the Arione, I believe. The nose is a little wider than that saddle, but not nearly as wide as an Adamo. It's perfect for me.

After 3 years of use, the neoprene cover on the nose is coming loose. But this is after using my tri bike for all my rides for that period. There is a vinyl material underneath, so the saddle will have a couple years of service left yet.
