I (female) possess a men's bike, the saddle was built accordingly narrow. After a short distance (about 15 minutes) then always hurt the bones. Through a planned bike tour so was ordered, a new saddle ago. I have read some reviews and so there found that it depends probably more on the form than on the gel padding o. Ä.. Because I wanted to spend a fortune, this saddle there was here. He is softer than the old not yet cozy. Sure, at some point I have to change a bit, but only just a little later here my sitting position. Perhaps there could be also at the attitudes still change what because I was so far not so probierfreudig.Positiv I noticed is that I through the hole in the middle less sweaty than the old saddle. Processing I found, however, better with my old saddle (Selle Royal). I made me a bit worried that the new well would be waterproof because the upper is topsy only stapled down. The first rain showed however that the worry about a wet Po was unfounded. All in all ok, but certainly not for someone who wants to ride on clouds.
