I tried a 143 Toupe and hated it... immediately. I tried a 155 romin evo and still love it. There are not many saddles out there for racing bikes that are wider than 143, though.

Is the regular romin a different shape? The Evo has *slightly* more padding but I'm not aware of any other differences.


Evo nose drops down more and is a bit thinner in profile than the regular. Regular romin for me. Love it.
