Embarassing Saddle Issues...

[zoom-zoom]

I LOL at this one

I have a dad, younger brother, husband and a 9 year old son. I speak from a multitude of experience.

Alexis, that is nuts. If you order from Specialized you can return the saddle within a certain period of time. Why would the distributor have a different policy than the company?

Because that's how it flies here and the distributor knows that unless we want to actually import the saddle from the US, we have no other choice. I went to ask at a few other bike shops and no one has test saddles to try and aren't willing to allow me to test a saddle before buying. I'm just going to order off chain reaction cycles, at least I don't have to pay as much as I would locally and their return policy is a little more flexible.

Quick update: After much wrangling, I got hold of a Specialized Alias 130mm on the secondhand marketplace. First sit, it feels good, hard, narrow enough and supportive and the cut out is AWESOME, no pressure! Hopefully it'll stand up to the long ride...
