Any saddle suggestions?

I'm pretty crazy excited (how sad is that?) about the new SM3 saddle that Ergon is coming out with. It will be in 2 sizes, with numerous rail and shell options. Technically it's a mtn. bike saddle, but it's VERY T-shaped and they are talking about putting out a road version, next year (I saw that in a video from one of the bike shows). I asked about a demo program and they are planning to offer one. Supposedly the saddle should be available in early May.

That looks nearly perfect, zoom-zoom. I've got a 143 Jett, and while it was fine (not perfect, but pretty close) even on climbs before I had my bike fitted, it's not so great now that the position is more aggressive. Some of it is core strength, I know, but it's still rather uncomfortable.

A friend suggested I look at TT saddles. Any opinion on that?

Bontrager has a 30 day unconditional money back gurantee on some of their saddles: http://bontrager.com/products/components/saddles

I found them in my LBS and with the garauntee I figured I'd try it. I really like the Affinity RLX WSD Carbon that I got. I'm keeping it.

Are you happy with the more aggressive position, other than the saddle issue?

Some of it is that my reach issues have been solved (in fact, the stem is shorter than what he wanted, but it's what they had). But my lower back and shoulders are much happier with the more aggressive position.
