Lisa- why do you want your saddle wider? Does it not suport your sit bones? In my experience I like the narrowest saddle that STILL supports my sit bones, cuz otherwise I find that it is too narrow in the middle region and rubs my thighs, since it has to gradually move from being wide in back to narrow in front, and if its too wide in the middle I get thigh chafing. Obviously a saddle that is too narrow to support your sitbones is even more problematic, cuz then your pubic bone is supporting your weight (like on my butterfly, been there done that, not good). I am still really happy with my Brooks Finesse. In fact, I already bought a second one for my commuter and the second one was comfy right out of the box once I had already figured out how I like her set up (nose just a tad down, right fore-aft position). If you want more support in the rear you could try playing with moving it forward. I noticed on my brooks that regardless of where I put it fore-aft, my KOPS was the same, that is I would sit on it to center my knee over the axis of the pedal rotation, its just I would be sitting on a different part of the saddle depending on the fore-aft I had set up, so I experimented until it felt the best. I think that's less true of cushy saddles that you can't really slide around on. -e
