Now I realize that everyone has a different budget. I've been down to my last burrito more than a few times myself.

If that is your present situation, I'd suggest to adjust, then readjust, over and over until you hit the magic spot. I do believe that many (not all) saddles can be pretty good with enough work. Maybe not great, but probably OK for what you need it to do.

If you've got a better budget, don't go shopping with price in mind, go shopping for comfort. At mile 80 or 120 or whatever, you're not going to be concerned if you are comfortable on a $150 seat. Chances are though, that within $100, you'll find something.

I would suggest looking at the Specialized line. I didn't think much of them but I'm trying one now out of necessity. It seems rather comfortable and has a 90 day butt guarantee. I've heard great things about Fabric but mine had a MFR defect and I lost faith in the brand with that.
