    While I don't destroy shorts, I'll keep it in mind for the next bike. It looks like it might work well.
    At least I don't leave slime trails.

    Zoom Zoom, thanks so much for all the feedback. I'm always looking for information about saddles that's real. Saddle comfort for women is a big problem that affects every aspect of riding. It's nearly impossible to get a good bike fit on someone unless they are reasonably comfortable on their saddle.

    I may need to get one of these saddles for my library, (I collect various saddle models and loan them out to people that come to me for fittings so they can try them out).

    I think it would definitely be a good one for your library, since it fills a niche that no other saddle on the market seems to, yet...T-shaped with a dip, rather than a cut-out. And I'd definitely recommend it to someone riding on rougher roads, too. We had an elite race near us this weekend that involved sections of cobblestone. I can't even imagine doing that on a saddle that doesn't absorb some impact!

    Zoom-zoom: did you buy it through Amazon or elsewhere? Look like an interesting saddle and I am tempted to try it.

    Universal Cycles. They had it for about $103 including shipping.

    Me neither. Though I will likely spend full price if I end up ordering another one up a model (to the tune of $160). I'd like to support my LBS if I know I'm going to keep it for the long haul.
