additional SADDLE help - info
 

Looking into getting a new saddle - decided either to get a brooks (either B17, Pro, or Swift) or a Sella Italia SLR (or a rolls classic - just seems like the SLR is the favorite)

I don't race. I commute and my handlebars are lower than my saddle, but not extremely low.

My current really cheap saddle is:

My issue with this saddle is that it puts a lot of pressure on the inner part of my sit bones.

- I know the B17 is cheap and it works well with the majority of the people who use them, but they are for more upright positioned riding.
- Between the Pro and the Swift, I know they're both used more for the racing type position with handlebars a lower than the saddle, I know the swift is more expensive, lighter, but both still take the same amount of time to break in (which isn't an issue for me)
- As far as the Selle Italia SLR and the Rolls classic (or any other saddle from that company, I don't know too much) I just know the Selle Italia SLR is really thin, and light - heard a lot of good things about it.

My one very specific question: If I were to get the saddles I mentioned above to eliminate my current issue (too much pressure on the inner part of my sit bones), which one would suit me the best? (As far as brooks, I know I won't be getting the narrow ones)

Thanks all

What was wrong with the other thread you started?

You want some advice? Go to a shop and sit on some. That's the only way you'll know what's going to fit you. Asking people here is only going to twist your brain into a knot.

I have both and am selling my Selle Italia SLK for what its worth.

I'm thinking about selling my Brooks B17 which is still unbroken in (though it's made some progress, but isn't really molded to my ass) if I can find a NOS Selle Italia Turbo for ~50-75...
