Hi gals, I recently put a Specialized Windie XC 143 on my commuter setup mtb, and have found it to be pretty comfy. It's not amazing, but I can ride the trainer for 2hrs without any trouble. I just bought a 2nd hand road bike, though, and the bontrager saddle on it is going to have to go! :eek:
Today I trailed around all of the bike shops in my area, and none of them has a saddle demo programme, so it looks like I'll have to take the plunge and buy a saddle. Having looked at the specialized website, it looks like the Jett might be pretty close in shape/size to the Windie XC that I have. The main reasons I liked the Windie were that it has a good cutout, and it's much firmer than any other mtb saddles I've tried, so am thinking I'd like those features in my new road saddle. If I have to start somewhere, do you think the Jett would be a good place to start?
Thanks, Lynne.
