I recently bought and now ride a Selle SMP. It is the greatest saddle ever. I have rode on Selle Italia and a Pluto Titec for about 12,000 miles and they were fine. But there was still relief getting off the bike and aniticpation getting on the bike. Those are gone now. Width, length, fore/aft/angle, and contour are all pretty personal things to each rider. I'm fortunate to find mine. Good luck to you.
