If you're not experiencing numbness and not riding a bike for a living, then chances are you can ride whatever saddle you want and not have a problem. If you do spend long hours in the saddle day after day, you should read the research then decide what sort of saddle is appropriate for the amount and type of riding you do. Reading the New York Times summary of this research was one of the things that got me interested in the ISM Adamo saddles...
