Good Saddle For “Riding On The Rivet”?
 
I love my Arione, but lately I’ve been experimenting with riding in a more forward position (on the rivet), and the slimness of the Arione is bothering me a little.

I don’t know if it’s just a matter of getting use to feeling like I’m sitting on a pencil, or if there’s a better saddle for this position.

I think the Arione has a wider nose than most other racing saddles. I don't have any problem sitting on the rivet.

Cool - I’ll deal with it.

I just wanted to make sure the Arione wasn’t known to be rivet unfriendly.

Thanks
