Selle An-Atomica is on its way

[shellabree]

Alrighty then... I've been a poster on a few of these saddle threads already and once again, I am hopeful.

I am a triathlete (I compete in sprint to 1/2 iron distances) who just can't get her bum comfy despite bike fit after bike fit and saddle after saddle. I have quite a collection now. I've ridden on an ISM Adamo Race, Selle SMP Pro, Selle San Marco Mantra, Specialized Jett, Cobb V-Flow Max and the Selle San Marco Island that came with my Cervelo P2C.

After those six saddles, boat loads of miles on each and too many sores and bruises, I have decided to 'ignore' the weight factor that we triathletes put such 'pressure' on and go out on a limb and try something totally different.

Enter the Selle An-Atomica.

I had a discount coupon and ended up ordering my saddle through trisports.com; BUT, I made sure to contact Tom at the Selle An-Atomica company FIRST so that I could enact the return policy if necessary.

At this point I am hopeful. I keep trying to find some negatives about riding on a suspended leather saddle, but other than having to use the tensioning bolt as the leather stretches, I really can't find any. It 'appears' that those who ride Brooks or Selle An-Atamica love their seats.

I will be sure to post back and let y'all know how it goes. Hoping for it to arrive early next week.

Keep your fingers crossed for me!
