    Don't sweat it, there are several of us on TE in the 170-180mm zone! (we tend to ride Brooks B66, B67, B68 saddles)

    I tend to measure women who come to me who are having trouble with saddles, and almost all of them are in the 150mm and up range. Which is *why* they were having trouble finding saddles!

    Eeek.. I didn't realize I was in the above 99% zone myself.. I just knew I had a heck of a time finding a saddle that didn't totally kill the girly parts. The first midwife I ever saw said I was "built for having babies" and I really get what she meant after my first was born after a lightning fast labor with a 14.5" noggin (even my last one at 9lbs+ was born in only 2 hours total.. his head wasn't *quite* that big though)

    A B68 was my next move after the Selle SMP if that hadn't worked for me.
