Hmmm...I'm reading a bit and thinking the Drakos or Dynamic look kind of intriguing. I'm just having a really tough time considering the price. These SMP saddles are about double the price of anything else I've tried...but nothing else I've tried hasn't drawn blood on some rides.

That's my big frustration. My Bontrager Affinity saddle is thus-far the best I've tried and sometimes I can ride for 50+ miles without significant discomfort. Other times I'm miserable within 3-4 miles. I think it's likely related to where I am in my cycle and various changes that yields down-below.
