"My predominant feeling is one of gratitude. I have loved and been loved;I have been given much and I have given something in return...Above all, I have been a sentient being, a thinking animal, on this beautiful planet, and that in itself has been an enormous privilege and an adventure." O. Sacks

For width of the nose, get a picture from the top--the saddle isn't "ping pong paddle shaped"; instead it tapers from about 5cm outer wide at the tip to 6cm about 1/2-way down the nose to 10cm where the nose meets the body.
On the other hand, the Allay says it is 5cm from the point it leaves the body ( http://www.allaysaddles.com/line/racingsport.htm ).

I tried it and it was way too wide for me also, leading to intense pain on the bony parts where your crotch meets your leg. I wanted to like it, but I just never got used to the pressure.

have it on the QR. LOVE it for being in the aero position for long stretches. BUT it can chafe in the upper thigh area because the nose is a bit wide.
I'm actually about to order the evolution. I looked at this model at interbike and I think width wise it will do the trick.
But after all the frogs this one worked.
