biker222, What is your riding posture? Aggressive or upright? Very generally the more aggressive the posture, the narrower the saddle and wider for more upright positions. I have a slightly aggressive posture that a SI Flite (and seeker333 is quite correct that none of the current Flite variations are quite like the original) fits best for me. Unfortunately we're all a little different and one rider's perfect saddle is another's ass hatchet.

Machka, brings up an interesting point about the Brooks saddles. Some seem excessively nose up, yet are perfectly comfortable. A friend says it's like a hammock and only works for the less aggressive postures.
