I have a question about Selle SMP Strike saddle.... How do you determine which one to get? mens or womens? I understand that womens is wider than mens, is there some trick to measure yourself? Share please as I am having a problem with my serfas saddle on longer rides. My butt does not bother me, it's my front that hurts when I am in my drop bars.
It's simple, you can find the women's for $70, or $50 on eBay if you're lucky. The men's is $208 on eBay. :-)
Actually, since I was disappointed in general with the Lady, I asked a guy selling all models, and he said measure my Vitesse, (which I love- so I don't really know why I was trying to cheat on it with another saddle- seven year itch, I guess) then pick the men's that most closely conformed to the Vitesse's measurements.
I figured, correctly, I was getting such a good deal on the Lady it would be no problem to resell if it didn't agree with me.
