Intermediate report...
I joined the "more leisurely" of two women-only group rides of the local cycle club today. About 13 miles, which started out really leisurely and ended up about as fast as I'd been going. I don't have the stats in front of me.
The WTB Speed was better width-wise but now squished the soft tissue of my crotch, which is quite as unpleasant. I may have to lower the nose -- I don't think I put it on entirely level. But my feeling is we won't get happy with each other. Oh, well, the search is on!

Just to let you know where I am going with this question: I'm still riding the WTB Speed, which has become sort-of bearable for a while by lowering the nose and moving it forward a little. It does become painful after about 75-90 min, which is how long I tend to ride.
After studying what I know I like and what others recommend, I ordered a Selle Italia Diva Gel Flow at a place where the price was ok, and it's now winging its way to Alaska. I'll post once I have experience with that one.
