    Hi,
    I'm very new to road biking, but even before purchasing a bike my husband and I did a LOT of research on saddles. We finally went with ISM Adamo Typhoon Saddle: "an all-purpose saddle that is designed to spare you the soft tissue and sit bone pain". I haven't logged too many miles yet, but have had no pain at all. The review I read highly recommend it for both men and women particularly to pervent the soft-tissue pain. Good luck.

    I swear by the Selle SMP saddles, which are similar. Weird-looking and I get comments (especially on my bright green one!), but after trying at least a dozen cheaper saddles -- that were varying degrees of not great or even really horrific -- I decided to suck it up and try an SMP (Drakon) and couldn't be happier. I have a total of 4 SMP saddles now, depending upon bike.

    freshie here- I've also been experiencing discomfort while riding on my soft tissue, cycling around town most days and have done a couple of 70km rides. I'm currently riding on my partner's male Brooks seat, and found a women's version with a cutout on their online store. Though I haven't tried this particular one, I really like their seats, and am wondering if anyone has experince or comparative knowledge in regards to a leather seat versus others?

    Here's the link to the Brooks seat mentioned: http://www.brooksengland.com/catalog...17+S+Imperial/
