I went to my LBS today and they suggested this saddle and assured me I could return it if it didn't work. It didn't. I'll return it.

However, I did receive in the mail today (via Amazon - sorry LBS) the Terry Liberator Y Elite (https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/...?ie=UTF8&psc=1).
I think this one will be a keeper. I need to make some adjustments but so far it's pretty good. I rode (on the trainer) for 20 minutes and was so much more comfortable. I accept that my sit bones will take some toughening up, but this saddle is an intermediate step and most importantly: it's not poking where it shouldn't poke.

Thanks,
Matt
