Hello and thanks for reading this post when there are gazillions of posts about saddles. I've read through the very helpful links and articles about finding the perfect saddle, and still I'm struggling.

My Trek road bike came with a Bontrager Affinity saddle. It's not awful, but I can't seem to make it work for rides longer than 30-45 minutes. I have no trouble with my sit bones; that part is perfectly comfortable. (BTW, I have no idea what "size" this seat is -- is there a way to find out?) I get lots of soft tissue pain from it. I've tried changing fore and aft positions, moved the nose up and down, etc. After reading through several posts, it sounded like a Terry Butterfly would solve my problems. OUCH! I tried and tried to like it, but it was torturous. The cut-outs didn't work in the right places and created pain in NEW places, and the nose was much too wide. I've determined that I don't like much padding, and I like a narrow nose on the saddle. Do you have any recommendations? Our LBS offerings are meager, and I'm really hesitant to shell out big bucks online to be stuck with something that won't work. If anyone has these specific issues and has found a good solution, I would love to hear it.

Thank you in advance!!!
