The Romin is my preference, but I fear that the wide nose will be an issue even if it is a narrower version of itself on the new Evo.
Both of the above come in different widths, just not sure what widths will be available on initial release.
Don't be afraid to try a lot of saddles. I've tried 8 or so since March. Some have been on and off of the bike after one ride, others have gotten a month of time. I hope that I can find the right combination of fit features for my hindquarters by the first of the year.
What do you do with the saddles that you don't end up liking? Do you resell them to try to recover some of your costs?
