    well... my concern is that if you don't have a true ischial tuberosity (any xrays or illustrations or detailed descriptions would help) on one side, then perhaps NO brooks saddle would be comfortable? Brooks works on the concept that the ITs provide all the support so soft tissue doesn't really come in contact with the hard saddle itself. (well it does, but it doesn't bear weight, really). The mechanics of this fit might be a bit more complicated.

    Which anterior ramus are you missing? the superior or inferior, and is it missing all the way back to the body of the ischium (the most lateral border of the obturator foramen) or just a section by the pubic symphisis? Is there a structural support there like a plate and screws, or cage, or an open section since the closed structure should still be decently sound?

    Sorry if this is delving into personal realms, but this might us more info to work with. We're all here for each other.
