Groovy, Denise, thanks. After my ride yesterday--during which I was “unpleasantly shocked”--I will take “pleasantly surprised”
. Where did you order yours from?

Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgement that something else is more important than fear. ~Ambrose Redmoon

Look under the thread A Very Happy Tushie down in favorite saddles or something. I got mine from some guy in England, on eBay. Whatever the price is, listed in that thread, is what I paid. $50-something including shipping, which was more than the saddle.

I have my new TT bike (thanks again to my man) and I bought the same saddle as I use on my raod bike.
I think the make of the saddle isn't so importantant as the position of it.
Because a TT position will put your bars lower in relation to your seat height, then check the position of your seat - it is likely that all you should need to do is tilt the nose down a tad, rather than change the whole saddle.
Good luck
Courage does not always roar. Sometimes, it is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying,
"I will try again tomorrow".

Mine's on its way to a new home...I like a saddle that's very narrow and flat and firm. Like the exact opposite. I bet one of their men's saddles might be good, but I'm afraid to experiment for over $200...I guess I could get it and give it to BF if I hate it...
