    +1 on the right saddle....

    The saddle I have now on two of my bikes is the exact same one I had tried before and hated it in pain. The difference is that before the saddle was on my old ill fitting too large for me bike... and after it was on my current right sized bike, fit by a pro... and literally both the saddle and bike disappear underneath me.

    If you are going for more speed, then you might also consider switching the width of your tires from 25s to 23s. The latter is usually the standard. It takes a little more balance practice, but is not long to adjust.

    I'm getting ready to swap over my wheelset this season so we will see. But I have heard this to be true. It's the reduction of rotational gravity that makes a difference.

    After hearing about the saddle.,I would invest in a good fit(retul is amazing!) and saddle. Make sure chain,cassette,etc. don't need replaced then look at wheels.
