SADDLE #2 -----------------> Tried Toseek with large cutout and one thin layer of cush. (Very hard....I can do it, but not something I'd want to live with long term)

SADDLE #3 -----------------> So.....Selle Italia Superflow (I got the TM version since cheapest) and seems like a good blend of the 2 above.......my left sit bone gets a little sore from the firmness vs the ole' forte....Maybe my sit bones are uneven?.....BUT....perineum numbness definitely gone. (nice)

QUESTION #1 -------> Does anybody know if the "TM" version's "Extra Padding" has more than the others...(i.e. regular Superflow, TI Superflow, Carbonio Superflow, etc.) Selle's webiste leaves A LOT to be desired!

QUESTION #2 -------> Anybody been in a similar boat to mine & have advice?? Maybe other saddles to try????

TIA very much!!!
ouch..
they look painful.
I ride classic chizik fits me well comfy.
valente I think. I have a closet of others that just hurt my taint and gave sores. keep trying.
