It took forever to break in. I had a hard time oiling it after that, because the wax wouldn't let in the oil. So it stayed hard for quite a time.

Anyhow, I recommend trying the WTB saddles. (no association)

Funny you mention that, I have a WTB Speed V that came on my mountain bike and really, really like it. The best stock saddle I've used, but I've only used it on my mountain bike. I'm currently thinking about trying a WTB saddle on my roadie which now has a Specialized Toupe. For now, I'm satisfied with the Terry Fly on my tourer. No saddle can work for everyone, that's for sure.
