This might be it. I might have just found THE perfect saddle. I've only ridden a couple of hours, so let's not rush to any conclusion here, but I might have. Just. Found. It.
This is Specialized's Romin saddle in 155mm. It is a men's saddle, but comes in 155mm, which is the width a lot of my girl friends ride. The cutout in the middle is wide enough to help with the pressure. The cutaway is big enough that it doesn't dig into the back of my thighs. And the curve up at the end holds my butt in place for a little extra push. It doesn't have a lot of cushion like the gel pad saddle, but since it's shaped correctly, I'm not numb or sore after the ride. I usually don't like cushy saddle to start with. I have yet to find anything bad to say about this saddle. I mean, it's not even ugly! Good job, Specialized. Finally you got your saddle right. I heard a rumor that Specialized might be making Romin for girls in the years to come. I'm so excited. This is an awesome saddle now for us girls... I can't wait for them to improve on it even more.
