Wove V8 TT + Tri Saddle

Description

The V8 is the saddle we reach for when the priority is staying fast, focused, and comfortable deep into the extensions. Built specifically for time trial and triathlon setups, it addresses all the usual complaints—thigh rub, soft tissue pressure, instability up front—and does it with a shape that feels locked in without locking you down.

At 146mm wide with a long, narrow nose measuring just under 54mm, the V8 provides real support whether you’re in a low aero tuck or sitting upright to climb or fuel. The squared-off nose gives a stable forward platform, while the grippy cover keeps you anchored without needing to shift or fidget mid-effort. It's a shape that encourages consistency, especially during sustained intervals or full race efforts.

The carbon shell and extended oval rails keep weight under 160 grams and allow for generous fit adjustment. Vibration-damping foam handles rough roads without deadening pedal feel, and the integrated hydration mount is clean, functional, and easy to use. At 295mm, it meets UCI rules and fits seamlessly into race setups.

We’ve put this saddle through its paces on tri bikes, TT rigs, and even aggressive road fits. If you're logging long hours in the aerobars and want a perch that holds you in position without introducing new issues, the V8 has earned its place on our list.
