I wanted to try a narrower saddle but one that was not too incredibly hard (I tried the Terry Damselfly and OWWWW....way too hard, and the cutout was too narrow and pinched!) I chose the Atola Gelaround over the regular Atola since it sounded like it would be a bit softer in the sitbone area. So I'll report back once it comes in and I can try it out.

Hey Emily - How is the new saddle working out?
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
