The Jett by Specialized

[spokewench]

I've been looking at the Jett because it is fairly light and also looked like it might be comfortable - My favorite Avocet O2 has been discontinued and I just don't know what to do. I do not like to put a heavy saddle on my bike, but hardly any women's saddle makers make a light weight racing saddle that is fairly comfortable.

Any suggestions out there for light weight - comfy? saddles?

I have been really happy with the Selle San Marco Aspide Glamour (either the standard or racing gel for longer rides). While a bit wide, there is no real chafing. And for once no horrid soft tissue pain (which I have had with every saddle from a Fizik Alliante to a Brooks 17). The saddle uses a groove instead of cut-out so it avoids those nasty gashes from the cut-outs.

I rode the racing gel in a 50-mile ride this weekend and had no problems.

Selle San Marco Atola Gelaround, if you have narrow sitbones. Very comfy after a short sit-bone break-in period.

Do a search in these forums on "Atola" for more posts about this saddle, including several from me.

Good luck!
