    Hey nscrbug, there is a difference between the old ruby and the new ruby. The plastic tabs are gone and there is a little more gel padding. I just didn't enjoy the wide nose in the 155 that caused chafing. I have also tried the glamour aspide K arrowhead and it is really comfy in the seat with that nice hammock effect. I did ride one for a while and it is a nice saddle.

    @nscrbug - no worries. Just being vain since I saw pix of a white one w/ aqua coloring and it wouldn't look nice on the red bike :/. I suppose i ought to be practical too and ask for measurements which are the more important data.

    @Sarah - "Selle San Marco - Aspide Glamour K Arrowhead Gelaround" Heck.. what is it? ROYALTY? Sheesh.. That rolls off the tongue. I couldn't find pix of this either.

    I've always thought we ought to have a forum saddle trade program instead of all of us constantly buying saddles all the time. But I suppose in threads like this it's sorta becoming one organically.

    Have you guys tried Selle An Atomica? I've been using them for years on all my bikes. The cons are they're heavy, and can stretch, especially in hot and humid. That said, I've had one of mine since 2007, and I'm guessing it has upwards of 8,000 miles on it. It's comfy, so I don't mind the weight. I think my sitbones are around 145mm c-c.
