The perfect saddle for you may be entirely different than for me, it is a very personal thing. A saddle that fits me perfectly feels almost like I am riding on air, I barely notice it is there. I have also tested saddles that were okay, but after an hour or two I am just a bit more sore than usual. It is all dependent on the width of your sit bones as well as your level of flexibility. That is why almost every Specialized saddle comes in three different widths. Most competent stores should have a small measuring tool for your sit bones and it takes only a minute or two. That I would also recommend visiting a store that allows you test a saddle for a day or two. It may take you a while and a bit of trial and error, but finding your perfect saddle is priceless.
