    I just saw this - any wide sit bone ladies give this a try yet? They have Sonomoa in regular, sport, and gel. http://www.specialized.com/bc/SBCEqS...quipSaddlesRec

    I just got the Sonoma Women's 175 and 155 (there is also a men's version). I previously used the Milano (which was 175) but recently found that I needed more of a cut out. I tried the 175 first, but to my surprise found that it was a little too wide for my sit bones. I then tried the 155 and am fairly happy with it. It's firmer than my previous saddles, but after a brief break in period I seem to prefer it. My main complaint would be that perhaps the nose is a little wide (I wonder if the men's version is narrower?). I do not have inner thigh chafing on it yet, but I haven't ridden it for more than 20 or so miles at a time. This month as the weather improves I will get a better feel for it.
