    DreadPirateRoberts - I'm wondering if you'd be better off with a more "T" shaped saddle so you avoid the friction that kicks off a sebaceous cyst.

    Unfortunately, the only saddle I know of that's T shaped is the Brooks B66, B67, B68, B72, and B18. (Cuz I have wide ol' sitbones, and these are the T shaped saddles that fit me. It's all about me, y'know!)

    The An-Atomica is a more pear-shaped saddle.

    I'm sure if you post in the "Favorite Saddles" area, and give your sitbones measurements and saddle needs, someone will be using the saddle that will suit you.

    Meanwhile, are you taking the antibiotics? Are you considering surgery to get the cyst out of the picture? (ask the gyn ARNP what she thinks) I'm doing women's pelvic health, and I'm amazed at what the male docs just throw their hands up in the air over. Dude, those guys are sooooooo easily embarrassed! We got a woman in for "pelvic pain" who actually had a hip joint dysfunction!!! She just needed regular physical therapy. TG she had a doc who could refer to some female practitioners who aren't shy....

    <me? shy? never! >
    Edit: well, at least not at work.
