The first saddle I bought was the Terry Liberator...It was too soft and created "hot spots". Then I tried the Vitesse, which I tried very hard to like, cause it's such a sexy saddle.

Cut to chase, I'm happier with a firmer, narrower mens saddle with a cut-out (A Selle Italia Flite with ti rails). It takes time to get used to sittiing on the bike for hours, it takes a while to figure out what works best for the shape of your pelvic floor, and I also think your needs change as you develop as a rider.

If you have a saddle that's making you miserable, no shorts in the world will save your @$$...
