FYI, I'm 6'3", 210 lbs.

I had an SMP Strike Plus for about a month. With or without cycling shorts, I found it incredibly comfortable for rides up to 1 hour, tolerable for rides up to 2 hours, and pretty miserable for rides longer than 2 hours.

I ditched it for a Specialized Toupe in 143mm, which has worked much better for me so far. It's the firmest saddle I've ever ridden, so it took a bit of getting used to, but I love it now. The only downside is that it's pretty uncomfortable without bike shorts, even for shorter rides.
