Not sure I would say “way better.” I had my fit pretty dialed in on the SB20 and an expensive S-Works Power Mirror saddle so I was comfortable doing 2 hour rides on it. The fore-aft movement on the Move acts more like a suspension that gives you a little bit of cushioning, which makes it a little more comfortable. The Climb has also made a difference since it gives me options besides coming off the saddle if I want to change my position slightly. But it’s not like I can now ride way longer than I could on the SB20, anything over 2 hours still gets uncomfortable, it’s just now I have more options to manage it.
