I beg anyone who has tried more than a couple of saddles and not found THE saddle to try an SMP. I tried AT LEAST a DOZEN before sucking it up and spending the money...I'm never looking back. I love the SMPs I have on my road and tandem. I don't have one on my CX bike, since the shape isn't real conducive to remounts (which I don't do properly, but need to start) or mtn bike...mtn. bike has me upright and out of the saddle enough that it's not an issue.
