What experiences have people had with these saddles, especially with regard to soft tissue areas and the aero position?

I replaced my Terry Butterfly with the Selle SMP TRK Lady saddle. All I can say is that the (formerly screaming-in-pain) 'soft tissue' is EXTREMELY HAPPY now. For rides under 20 miles I don't even need bike shorts. Of course everyone's anatomy is different, (I guess this saddle is a bit wide for some) but it might be worth a try. Oh, and I do spend a lot of time in the aero position, though have not yet tested this saddle in distances longer then 45 miles.

Thanks! I just got the Selle SMP ladies, the Adamo, and the Blackwell Flow in the mail. I can't wait to put them on my bike to see if any of them work. I'll let you know! On ething I have noticed about the Selle is how heavy it is! Also, there is a sharp inner lip on the inside of the cut-out. Have you noticed it while riding?
