aerborn aerolite pad with Korrector

[Orchardbeck]

I've always wanted to do a product review so thought I would!

Just received one of these pads from rideaway today, and have to say, i'm really impressed with the design. It's a pony one so is a better fit for my saddles than the massive prolite and lambskin pads, but its totally cut away in front so there is no wither pressure point, and it has both velcro straps for the front d rings and the Korrector plate to hold it in to the gullet at the back so it doesn't slip. The shims are much thinner too, and graduated in size.

It looks loads neater at the front than other pads i've tried, and that's a lot!

I'm yet to try it out on a ride but will let you know once I have. Impressed so far!

I havent seen those, but have a Korrector pad. Is the aerborn one air-adjustable or is it just shimming?

My saddle fitter recommended these as prolites tend to slip. Be interesting to see how you get on with it

Capriole - it is just shimming - like the prolite one, but with a much better cut.

Mudmonkey - i'll update, hopefully this one won't slip!

Mines been stuck in its box for years (the air one) but Im sure the instructions said that you could purchase the plastic gullet tags seperately so you could stitch them to other pads. That might be an idea for people who are having slippage problems and dont want a whole new pad? Those tags were the best part of the Korrector imo
