I've just fitted the SNP TRK ladies version for my wife to the back of our tandem. When someone refers to it as being level - do they mean the rails or the saddle top?
Anyone use one? Looks good to me but what do I know

It's not entirely down to the saddle though because she rides her own bike with no problems. It's a combination of road bike wheels, potholed roads and pedaling harder whilst not being able to shift about I think. Never had much problem on the mountain bike Tandem we have - softer ride methinks and not racing against solo riders either.

How you set up the saddle is a personal preference, others will insist it should be horizontal to the ground. The unusual design of this saddle is that the front droops (like Concorde's nose when it was landing); the middle is horizontal and the rear rises upwards slightly. When setting this sadlle up horizontally it is the middle section that this refers to.
Personally I prefer the saddle pointing downwards slighty on my touring bike and horizontal on my hybrid bike.
