I don't know, I very seldom remember I'm even on my Romin. There's no unusual pressure or weirdness, just my sit bones contacting the saddle right where they should be.

:lol: Just saying that a properly fitting saddle doesn't constantly remind you that it's there by putting pressure on body parts that it shouldn't.

Jokes aside, I did have a little bit of discomfort when I (essentially) lowered my bars. By that I mean installed Nitto RB021 bars. Although I did have generic drop horns on there before too, so it wasn't a huge switch. But it was enough to notice.
But now with the 125 degree 75mm stem, it feels damn near perfect. I also tightened the nut beneath the nose of my Brooks, which tightened the leather a bit, which helped my occasional discomfort too. I think after 4 years of riding it and (occasionally) mink oiling it and whatnot, it got a little too flabby/loose. I didn't tighten that nut much, but just enough to make a difference. Long story short, I'm just not eager to go screwing around with a saddle that's mostly working well. Start trying new saddles and changing config and maybe even dropping some dough on another saddle... I know I can get much worse. I'm not sure sure about how much better I can do though. |

I've noticed quite a few ladies do that with their saddles.
The Terry Butterfly saddle comes highly recommended from a lady racer friend of mine to other ladies. She made the Me Gusta face when she was describing it to my female teammate. |
