Hey guys, 'nother newbie here. Proud owner of a 2010 Marin San Rafael for the last few months.

I've returned to cycling at age 58 after a several decade layoff. This is my first "real" bike and I'm lovin' it.

Here's what I've discovered so far, what you pay for the bike is really only about half the story. Double that amount for new rigid forks, Ergon grips, pedals, blinkies, racks, locks and now a saddle that won't feel like I'm sitting just on the seat post after a few miles.

After looking around here I've decided the Serfas MX 2 Dorado might be the ticket to give my poor taint a much needed break.

My dilemma arose when Amazon offered the mens model for $40, and the womens model for $26. The womens appears to be identical save for 1/4 inch shorter and 1/2 inch wider at exactly the same weight. BTW, the womens has the exact dimensions as my stock WTB V-whatever saddle.

So should I get in touch with my feminine (back) side? Oh, the womens is pink. I kid.

Thanks,
Coyote
