Well, there may be about as many threads about saddles as there are opinions about saddles. I did change mine when I purchased my Fx3 a couple of years ago. The saddle that came on it didn’t agree with its contact point. The bike shop did discount the replacement saddle since I bought the bike there. I ended up replacing that one later with a Brooks when I was given a gift card and wasn’t sure what else to use it for. I now have 2 saddles that I like.

What works for you really is a personal fit issue in my opinion. I’ve heard of bike shops that have multiple saddles they will let you try before you buy, so if you’re fortunate enough to have that option, use it. You may receive a lot of opinions on the best, most comfortable saddle on the market, and it probably is for that particular rider. Ultimately, your contact point will tell you what saddle will work for you. There really are many good choices out there.
