For those who have a Specialized Romin 130, and your butt agrees with that saddle, do you have any other saddles that you like? I love it, but I dont have another 130 to get another one, and I dont want that expensive of a saddle on my beater. Can you guys help me out?

Look for anything that has that curve in a 130. off the top of my head - the Fizik aliante sport that was stock on my Giant bicycles a few years back would probably work well. Comb ebay for used Romin's as well. I tossed mine in only a few months of use and sold it near new at a swap meet for $40. Saddles that work for you are like gold. Ones that don't work for you are worthless.....to you. The same holds for others as well.

To be honest, I've yet to find anything as good as the Romin for me. It's relatively unusual with its combination of curve and a cutout. I'd look for a used one.

When you say beater, are we talking a rain bike or a commuter/town bike? If you only use it for short distances you may find saddle choice is less critical. I have Romins on my road bike but my beater (fixed gear Pompino) has some piece of crap Selle Italia. In any case, I find race saddles tend to be a bit too sharp-edged to wear with street clothes.
