I've been testing saddles at the bike shop (Inverness Bicycle & Fitness) trying to find one a little more comfortable that the Specialized Romin I have on my Litespeed. I've been riding on a WTB Devo for a week and its comfortable but theres no cutout. I've been riding with cutout saddles for 10+ years. I rode to the shop and swapped for a WTB Rocket. It looked a lot like the Devo (mtn bike saddle?) but is a road saddle. Spent the first 5 miles trying to get comfortable. Finally got comfortable for a mile or so. Then I stood up and when sat down I couldn't get comfortable again. Rode 5 miles to the shop in comfort and 27 miles in total discomfort. Needless to say the saddle is going back on Tuesday when the shop opens again. Maybe I'll look at some of the Prologo saddles. They only have WTB, Prologo, Terry and ..... I can't remember what other brands they have.
At least it isn't costing me anything to test the saddles. I hope I find one I like.
