Saddle Woes

If you know me, you have likely heard me complaining about my saddle at one time or another. In the past year and a half, I’ve tried and disliked 9 different saddles from a Fizik Arione, several Terrys, a couple of Specializeds, a couple of different leather saddles, and a partridge in a pear tree. All of them, in one way or another, have done something to make me incredibly uncomfortable somewhere in the undercarriage.

I’ve decided to make a saddle que-
Selle San Marco Glamour Aspide
Topeak Allay
One or more of the new Trek WSDs that aren’t out yet
A Selle Italia of some sort

Unlike what I’ve done in the past (ride until I can no longer stand it), I’m going to try one, and, if it gives me a problem, immediately return or sell it and go to the next one down the list. I’m tired of something hurting every time I ride!

I know there are some other women who read this that have had saddle issues. What have you tried?

  1. Hey there… Here I am from the TE forum. You don’t get enough comments! Anyway, like I said over on TE, I have only been biking for one season, but have done okay on the Terry Butterfly. The specialized butt-o-meter has me at 140mm sit bone width. Problem is, I think the Terry is really bulky and also unattractive. I am following your saddle saga with interest!
