Hi Brian!
The men's saddle that came with the bike was too narrow for me, that's why I swapped it to a terry butterfly woman's saddle.
Women have wider pelvic bones than men. Thus,usually a woman's saddle will be wider than a man's saddle.
that is my understanding of it.
The woman's saddle fitted me perfectly as a woman, so I just assumed it wouldnt fit you ( being a man and all!)
