Informative view of saddle/Pelvic fitting - not sit bone width

Hello Ladies,

I ran across this article tonight which really seems to address a specific issue... sit bone width did does not necessarily translate into 'ehem' forward pelvic comfort - especially with the female anatomy. Worth a read if you are struggling with pressure points "down there." In my situation, I finally had a chance to ride on one of those gel seat covers that most bike snobs sneer at (borrowing a bike while out of town) and surprisingly, it was incredibly comfortable despite the box-store saddle that it was covering.

Please take note that this is not an endorsement for SMP saddles. It is simply a new piece of info I ran across on an age old issue. Hope someone finds this use-full.

At least for me your link took me to a "sorry we couldn't find the page you're looking for" Maybe the title of the article and under what section of the homepage might help those who also get that?

me too.

Heh, OP missed a space. Here's the link. http://www.stevehoggbikefitting.com/...ll-about-smps/

Whoops, thanks! I fixed it above as well

I beg anyone who has tried more than a couple of saddles and not found THE saddle to try an SMP. I tried AT LEAST a DOZEN before sucking it up and spending the money...I'm never looking back. I love the SMPs I have on my road and tandem. I don't have one on my CX bike, since the shape isn't real conducive to remounts (which I don't do properly, but need to start) or mtn bike...mtn. bike has me upright and out of the saddle enough that it's not an issue.

I'm a huge fan of SMP. The Glider and Lite 209 models are the first saddles I've had in years that I can ride for more than 90 minutes on without pain and chafing.
