Butterfly Carbon Saddle by Terry

I have been using Terry saddles for many years. They are great saddles! This saddle for me is the most comfortable one I've experienced. I ride about 125 +/- miles each week in the riding season, and 3x weekly on the trainer in winter. I only gave it 4 stars due to its durability. After about a year and a half, the leather on the sides begins to wear out (saddle foam begins to show through and afyer continued riding the leather begins to rip off), and the leather on either side of the stitching between the back leather piece and center leather piece begins to pull apart; I use duct tape at that point to cover it up and keep it from ripping more. This year, I needed to replace this saddle for the third time in six years. So, $600 over 6 years. A saddle that costs $200 should last a lot longer than 2 years!. I highly recommend that the Terry designers look at a different and more durable cover (I would be happy to test it for you). Before buying this saddle again this year, I tried 2 other Terry saddles that had a more durable cover, and a non Terry saddle. None of them worked for me... and trying to find a new saddle that works for me is incredibly stressful. So, I bought this again, and yes, I am happy, but not looking forward to two years from now having to buy it again because the leather and stitching wears out.

Just brought home a new pivot Mach 4. Had to get my favorite Terry saddle to make the bike perfect. Couldn’t be happier.

This is probably my 10th butterfly! Would never ever consider any other! The bomb.com!

Light weight and perfect!!

I like this saddle but I agree if you ride a lot it wears out quickly. I'm replacing a replacement saddle from my LBS that I got less than 8 months ago. I ride on average 120-150 miles per week

The seat is great, it’s light weight and very comfortable. But if you ride a lot it wears out quickly.

I have the Terry FLX seat but have been finding that uncomfortable when I ride longer than 2.5 hours (both on the road and mountain bike) so thought I would try a more padded seat for endurance rides but the Butterfly is too wide for my sit bones so I am going back to the FLX.

Would like to be able to write a review but am still waiting for my order. Please help!!!!

I got his saddle after using a minimal men's saddle for years. I needed something with a cutout , additional padding and without a lot of weight or extra material. This saddle fits me perfect! Thanks Terry

Our wonderful Terry rep Whitney graciously donated some Terry gear to our documentary HuanDao, where a female friend & I rode the coastline of Taiwan in 2 weeks. One of our goodies was an older model of the Butterfly Carbon, and it is a fantastic saddle. Ultra lightweight, ultra comfortable for 60-mile days, day after day!

This saddle is so comfortable! I have it on my mountain bike and it does a great job on rough terrain. I can thankfully say that that my legs get tired long before my seat feels tired. I also have the butterfly century on my road bike; this saddle has more cushion than the century and feels great. If you are struggling with a generic/not womens specific saddle give the butterfly a try, for me it is the difference between pain and fun!

I purchased this to replace the Bontrager seat that came on my Trek hybrid. The Bontrager wasn't horrible, but I just wanted an even more comfortable seat, since longer rides were getting to be hurty on my lady-parts. The Terry Butterfly Carbon Saddle is significantly more comfortable than my stock saddle and it's light as a feather. I am generally a fairly frugal person, so this saddle was a splurge for me (that's the only reason I nicked it half a star). Saddles are such a personal choice that what may be fablulous for one person could be torturous for another person. Online reviews can only tell you so much, and your butt will tell you the rest. Sometimes it takes a couple of long rides on a new saddle to figure out if you just need to get used to the saddle or if it really isn't panning out, so it was nice to have the option of using Terry's generous return policy, if needed.
