This saddle is the least comfortable saddle I placed my butt on since the days of the old Selle Italia Turbo (read: "rock"). I have ridden the Selle Italia Flite (which I love as it is so flexible), WTB Speed She (pretty plush), Selle Italia Ladies Trans Am, and a few others. The cut out on the Damselfly is placed just so it puts intense pressure on either side of the hole. I have the saddle installed perfectly level and if I go more than $20 miles, I am just in pain. I am sort of surprised Terry of all companies makes such a miserable saddle.
