    I've just put a SSM Aspide Glamour on my Tri Bike. So far I've not had any problems.

    I had the Aspide Glamor for about 6 months, till I crashed and ripped it up. It was a very good saddle. While shopping for another (always looking for 'better') I found the Bontrager Inform RXL (and RL). NOT the WSD padded ones. They are UNISEX and come in 134, 143, and 154 size. I got the 154 and found it is even more comfortable than the Glamor. It is a lightly padded saddle like the Aspide, no cutout and no center depression. The center area is a little softer, and I find the fact that it is flat (no lumps or channels) makes it more comfortable. Having a 90 day unconditional return made trying it a no brainer. I liked it so much, I bought the RL for my MTB. So if you like the Aspide but it is maybe not quite right, you might want to try the RL or RXL Unisex Bontrager.

    I've had my RXL on the road bike since Feb, and I routinely ride for 3+ hours with no issues what so ever. On the MTB, all those roots and rock gardens are a non issue. I stay seated and don't get beat up by the saddle.
