Whatever you decide, congratulations on your new bike!
Thanks! I thought about this, but it seems like my positioning will be so different on the mountain bike as opposed to my road bike...maybe I'm overthinking it though.

My particular preference is the Lazer but there are a whole lotta WTB saddles in various widths. I would not recommend the Speed She as the nose is quite short. You don't quite realize how much the nose of a saddle changes the control of your bike until . . . it isn't there to stick where the sun don't shine on a climb.
This is what I was thinking. There's definitely things to take into consideration that are different than the road! The WTB saddles look fairly pear shaped though, and I needed a very T-shaped saddle for my road bike. Oh to have a demo program...the Devo looks maybe ok.

The Specialized Phenom looks promising...maybe. So hard to tell!
