    I have a Serfas RX Women's saddle and I love it. I have ridden up to 60ish miles with it and it was still (relatively) comfortable.....as comfortable as a saddle can be after 62 miles, haha. Just search online for the name and you should see it. I bought mine at REI but I'm sure other places sell it.

    I agree. The Serfas RX (mens) saddle is sweet, and it's reasonably priced too. All three of my bikes have Serfas saddles now. And I had some really pricey saddles before I changed out to Serfas. Awesome saddles. Awesome value.

    Most the women I know ride Cobb saddles. Generally the Plus or the 55 JOF depending on their riding style.

    I ride with a Brooks Saddle B17 http://www.brooksengland.com/catalogue-and-shop/saddles/road+&+mtb/B17+Narrow+Imperial/

    After it is broken in it is quite comfortable. It sure beats the stock Bontrager seat that came with my bike. I could only do 10 miles on that seat before I had to get off for a while.

    When the Brooks came in, I was like, that looks more uncomfortable than what I had. Looks are deceiving sometimes. 30 miles later this was obviously the better choice. Now I have 150 miles on the saddle and I love it.

    It'll be better still in around 15 years... plenty of proofide and a 1/4 turn on the tensioner a year, and you'll be able to bequeath it to your grandkids. The old Team Pro I had was a beauty - honey leather with the massive copper rivets. Still regret swapping it to this day - it'd be perfect on my old Dawes Super Galaxy tourer.

    I have gone through a few saddles for my wife, and her favorite is the Selle Italia Diva. Very comfortable without being overly padded. She has no problems riding 30 or 40 miles on it.

    I highly recommend this saddle :happy: I can ride all day in it and not get sore! It has made all the difference to me x

    I have this saddle and it's great!

    I had my sit bones measured when I got my bike and they put that one on it.

    Does this saddle come in different widths? I also had my sit bones measured and need something around 155. I tried looking, but it doesn't look like it does :(
