I figured out the saddle issue today. How dumb can I be? It appears there is no bottom to that particular well.

The Selle Italia SLR superflow that I love is, @ 140+mm, the widest saddle I have in my way too large collection of saddles that "didn't work for me"?

Well crap, if I had been buying the right width years ago I could have saved myself a lot of pain. From the old memory vault I remember a Specialized Troupe that worked really well for me but I sold it with a bike and forgot about it. Thinking back I realize that saddle was just under 6" wide in the seat part (140 +mm?)

I have been running about 120mm on all my saddles with a 110 Origin 8 still in the cabinet....I am just not a 120 guy it turns out. I don't know where I got that from.

Oh well, better now. I am going to have a little saddle sale in the next day or so..for skinny ass riders.

Mike
