I'm going to try out the selle smp soon, too. I have been using a Fizik Vitesse, which I am very happy with, (it's been on three bikes since 2000) but am curious about the selle. Anything to take pressure off that area, without having an adverse reaction on the sit-bones, would be nice. I am worried about it being too cushy or too wide back there, though...

I haven't heard of any of the saddles that have gel in the nose actually feeling good or better than those which don't.
