The saddles in question are the Selle Italia Max Flite Gel Flow (with at least a full centimeter of squish) and the Specialized Toupe Gel (I guess this is the MTB version since it has a Rudolph nose). What would happen if I made a small incision on the side and removed as much of the material as possible? Would I be left with a deformed plastic shell or would I be able to ride for 3+ hours in peace?
