    like everyone is saying, saddles are very much personal things, but ive known 3 female cyclists who changed to a specialized riva saddle for the same reason as yourself and they havent looked back. big difference for them.

    I have an ISM saddle on my tt bike. It came with the bike and I hate it. They are not always the answer.

    So I got a new saddle and it has made a world of difference managed 25k on Sunday without wincing in pain.

    It does create a bit more pressure 'up front' but in the grand scheme of things that's easier to deal with then pain at the other end :o

    Those cycling grounds in Corcagh Park are dead handy for getting the practice in, boring but functional!

    Good to hear, what saddle did you go for in the end?

    I couldn't tell you I had the bike in with Dad to get him to fit my lights and it appeared with a new saddle and I can't even remember the name of it :o

    His friend works in a bike wholesalers so he picked it up for me along with a car carrier thingy :)
