I have a Fi'zi:K Aliante Gamma XM on my Trek 7500 Hybrid. This saddle has been good to me as I can spend a better part of the day on it with no problems. Most weekends we put anywhere from 40 to 60 miles on the bikes with a mid-week ride of 12 to 15 when I can because of work. I got this saddle at the end of last season and knew the first time I rode the LBS test saddle that it was right for me. That being said a saddle is a personal thing and everyone is different, try some test saddles and find one you like is all I can say about this.

I also would say go get your sit bone measured I did and it did help in selecting the one I have now, I thought just because I was a clyde and had a big butt that I need a big wide padded saddle and boy was I wrong about that one & so was everyone else that took me wider was better because I was a big guy. Even to this day people see me riding on the rail trails and ask doesn't that saddle hurt your butt being so small and I just smile and say not a bit & big is not always better.

Hope this helps you in your search for the saddle you are looking for.
