saddle and shorts

[redrhodie]

Now I ride a San Marco Glamour Aspide. I tried three Terry saddles and two Specialized ones. The Terry ones were too padded and the padding broke down & closed the cutouts shut (ow), and the specialized ones were just too wide in the middle area.

Andrea, I'm so glad you finally found your dream saddle! I'd consider buying one of the watersheds from you if you have it repaired.

kgorrell, this goes to show it really is trial and error. It can be a really expensive quest, too. There's not much you can do, but some saddles makers do let you return within a few hundred miles, so try some of those.

Wouldn't it be great if we could start a lending library for saddles? I have a Terry Zero I'd be willing to lend out if someone's thinking of trying one. Its leather is a little worn even though it only has <500 miles on it, so I don't think I should sell it.

On second thought, that wouldn't work. Once someone found a saddle they liked, they'd never want to part with it. Also, Terry is one of those companies that lets you return saddles within a certain time frame. I just kept thinking this one was okay until it was too late. If anyone wants it, you can send me a pm. It's just sitting here. It's metallic pearl. Just pay shipping.
