Subject: Ladies, I finally found a saddle! I went through every crazy saddle imaginable, including the two butt cheeks one. I was numb my whole ride. I am an Athena Plus and most of my weight is in my mid-section and rear. You can't put that much weight on two sit bones. My sit bones could hard find the saddle! I bought the Selle Royal Ergogel Relaxed Lady City/Touring. It is the first time that my "parts" never get numb. I even bought the same saddle for my mtb. Yeah, it looks a little weird because it's larger than the typical road saddle and cushiony, but who cares. I can ride for days. I do get a little rubbing because of it's width, but a small price to pay, trust me.
And, the best part.....cheap! If you are like me and get numb constantly, try this. And, in answer to anyone's question, yes, I was professionally fit for the bike.
Good luck.
Rhonda
