Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Finding the right saddle w/o breaking the bank?

Since finding the best saddle for each cyclist is inherently personal, how to you go about testing different models w/o having to sink big $$$? I bought the Koobi Enduro based on the plethera of positive reviews, but it was to wide for my backside. They have a great return policy, but I haven't seen this anywhere else, including my local LBS's in Dayton, Oh.

A good return policy is fantastic for a saddle because you never know how it will feel without riding it. You can also check out the saddle swap thread here in BF's .
