The Recon we carry here at U Outdoors is different than the Recon of old. 

Ours has a much simpler design for the bridge and waist belt that eliminates the rubber coated plates and replaces them with anodized plates. This design makes it easier to put on the saddle and eliminates unwanted noise, it's deadly quiet. 

The Recon is a 2 panel saddle which gives you the most options for comfort in different positions and includes removable leg straps as well as its own carry pouch. 

If you're looking for a very lightweight, comfortable and compact saddle this definitely fits the bill.
