Wow! After many trials and tribulations, and aches and pains with various saddles, Slinkedog was kind enough to post her results with the Selle SMP Stike. I am forever indebted to the Slinkster!!!!!!!! I took this saddle for it's first spin this morning and was absolutely delighted! It felt like my soft tissue was floating on air! No pressure whatsoever! My sit bones were happy and it was an absolute spiritual experience.:D :p
I am really amazed at this saddle. They really put a lot of thought into it. When they claim that the saddle is ergonomically correct, they are not kidding. When bent deep over the bars with tush in the saddle, my soft tissue was free of pressure while the front of my pelvic bone was firmly supported. Truly a wonderful invention. Just wanted to pass this on to others who are still struggling with finding the right saddle. Mine is the Selle SMP Strike Ladies TRK. It is the only Ladies model they make but has a vinyl cover rather than leather. The vinyl doesn't bother me a bit nor detract from the functionality of this saddle. The higher end SMP Strikes have leather covers if that is what you desire.
Happy trails!!!!!:D :D :D
