I'm currently riding a "Skye" saddle. Not sure where it came from. It's pretty narrow, has a decent cut out. Similar to these other skye saddles. http://forums.mtbr.com/weight-weenie...le-370575.html
From what I remember I've tried is a bontrager something (went to my LBS measured my sit bones and was told to get it). No cut out but a small groove, squishy, and hell on my race bike. It is currently on my commuter and it works fine, largely in part to not having a long enough seat post, so I am much more upright and the squish helps the sit bones.
True that.But when you are not in pain and comfortable, you perform better all the way around.
My mom's boyfriend/my coach, as well as my LBS, other part time coach, and other friend, have all looked at my position. All people I really trust and who know their stuff. I worry about my position, especially because of my injury (medial meniscus damage), but I'm pretty sure that it was caused from not stretching enough/at all. I go through a pretty hard core stretching routine in the mornings and follow my rides with ice. I've been working with a chiropractor, who is also a cyclist, and it seems to be helping. (The chiropractor says it's probably due to tight hips and muscle imbalance.)
Pretty sure my fit is okay. Although that is a really good point and something that I should double, triple, quadruple check.
