    I rode a Lithia for almost 6,000 miles and replaced it with a Jett.

    I tend to agree the Lithia is a bit squishy. But it all depends on your anatomy... if you're not super prone to chafing, it might be fine for you. I never rode much over 100 miles at a time on it. I think it's plenty comfortable for under 40 miles or so, especially on hills, for commuting, or other situations where you're moving around a lot and not just hammering in the saddle.

    I think the other two saddles you're looking at are considerably more pear-shaped. One thing I really like about the entire Specialized line is how T-shaped they are.

    The Aspide Glamour looks t-shaped to me. I'm actually considering it for my next saddle.

    Well I put the Specialized Lithia on my commuter and I kinda like it! It supports my sitbones perfectly (I got the medium size one), and I'm loving the cutout. Granted I only took it out for an errand, but I wore shorts with no padding and I was fine. I'm still going to try a SI SLR Lady Gel Flow on my road bike, but I think the Lithia saddle is a keeper, too....
