Detailed Review

The Ergon Allroad Comp Women’s Saddle is a great saddle option for gravel, road, or groad cycling due to quality construction and design.

Installing the Ergon Allroad Comp Women’s Saddle on my gravel bike was easy. The saddle utilizes TiNox rails, which are light and strong. The Biomechanical Reference (BMR) line printed on the saddle made aligning the saddle for my needs simple.

My testing of the Ergon Allroad Comp Women’s Saddle was on several medium long (1-3 hour) groad rides on my local bike path system, with a good mix of pavement, smooth gravel and spicy gravel.

The saddle is engineered to accommodate women’s anatomy, and because of that, I found that I was able to decrease the forward tilt of the saddle (nose down) about 3 degrees than my factory saddle. This meant that I was able to hold my position on the saddle and avoid any forward sliding as I pedaled along.

The saddle cover is a smooth microfiber material that hit the sweet spot of helping to hold you into place but not feeling overly grabby or slippery. The orthopedic comfort foam was nicely supportive without making you feel like you were sinking into the saddle.

I appreciated the compact design of the Ergon Allroad Comp Women’s Saddle. The overall length is a bit shorter than my factory saddle and the nose is a bit narrower. As a triathlete, I do find that I tend to be a bit more forward than some cyclists, because I spend so much time riding in aero. While I don’t have aerobars on my gravel bike, I do generally hold a more aggressive position while riding that bike. The slightly shorter + narrower nose of the saddle felt great on my rides.

I also felt evenly supported across the expanse of the saddle as I rode during my testing. The Ergon Allroad Comp Women’s Saddle easily accommodated a variety of riding positions and terrain, making me feel comfortable, and providing a good platform for delivering power to my pedals.

Closing Thoughts

The Ergon Allroad Comp Women’s Saddle is a bike saddle that’s built for women and handles everything from smooth roads to chunky gravel, offering a strong but supportive platform for one of the most important contact points. The saddle is available in two sizes: S/M and M/L. This saddle developed by women, taking into account women’s physiological needs, and combining it with solid engineering and construction practices.

Trail Boss of Stoke

Erin Trail’s hobby is collecting hobbies. She’s a 5th Generation Coloradan and grew up exploring the outdoors on family camping trips and hikes. Her first backpacking trip was at eight years old to Grizzly Reservoir – she proudly carried all of her own gear those 3 miles from the main parking lot to the Reservoir.

Erin is an adult-onset athlete who started as a Masters Swimmer and then developed into a triathlete. She has completed 5 Ironman races and nearly 20 x 70.3 distance Ironman races, including the World Championship in Lahti, Finland, in 2023. In 2025, she raced for Team USA in Pontevedra, Spain for the World Triathlon Cross Tri World Championship. She placed 9th in her age group and was the 1st American woman in her age group.

Somewhere along her triathlon journey, she picked up deep love of cycling. Cycling encouraged her to see landscapes in a new way, learn new skills and to develop self reliance; now she often goes and does Type 2 rides just to see if she can do it. She’s got all the bikes: gravel, mountain, fat bike, time trial and road.

She is even known to combine her love of camping and cycling and go off on solo 24 hour overnight bikepacking trips in the mountains of Colorado. In addition to bikes, she teaches yoga, lifts weights, skis, SUPs and has recently purchased a campervan.

Erin is a former Montana park ranger with a degree in environmental engineering. She loves getting into technical details while putting her gear (and herself) through the paces. She shares her home in Colorado with her husband, Will, and her 3 cats (Zipper, Brewtus, and Simcoe).

Fall and winter 2025 will bring Erin to the “Adventure Side”, with many camping, vanlife, bikepacking, and mountain bike rides. Once the snow flies, she can be find resort skiing, fat biking, and triathlon training (inside and outside).

2026 will bring a National Championship Cross Tri race, a National Championship Road Sprint and Olympic Distance race, and hopefully a chance to represent Team USA once again in 2027 in Edmonton, Canada. She’ll also save lots of room for adventure time with her friends and husband.

When not adventuring, she can be found on a sunny patio somewhere, drinking beers with her husband.
