6" must be common for a woman. I measured 145 mm with my specialized dealer so not all of them have returned the foam.

Renee, I was in Mad town last week Monday and Tuesday and stopped at the Yellow Jersey (I couldn't remember the shop you used). He put a new more curved handle bar on and raised it quite a bit for me. Of course, he said my seat looks too narrow (it is now that I've been measured), and the sitting more upright puts more pressure on the sit bones. I took it for a whopping 13 mile ride yesterday and find the more upright position, well, weird feeling. My tail bones not as sore but I need to rider over 15 miles to see if I get rubbed raw at all. Then it's time for another new saddle....
