I've heard you need to size up on the Romin, so I'm looking for a recommendation on what size would be appropriate for me the 143 or 155?
Thanks,

Why this particular saddle? I just looked at Specialized's website. There are four or five Romin models. Which one in particular do you have in mind? I ma not at all understanding why one should need to "size up on the Romin". But... if that is true... well I measure 100mm and that puts me on a 145. How could you possibly consider the 145... or the 155 for that matter. Since you can only buy Specialized Saddles through a dealer, why don't you let them measure you properly with their proprietary fit kit and tell you what size saddle to get. I'd get the Avatar myself if I had to buy a Specialized Saddle because someone gave me a Specialized gift card or something, but buying a saddle with my own money? Terry. Liberator, Falcon, FSX. FWIW.
