The expat cyclist Posted June 29, 2011 Share My wife's MTB needs a new saddle. Now every shop we go to, wants to sell something different - all claiming this will be perfect for her. So my wifes tunes the salesman today: "And how would you know this is perfect for me? You're not a woman, so how do you know?" So ladies, what saddles would you suggest to a fellow lady? And also what kind of riding/events do you do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KnobbyMech Posted June 29, 2011 Share My wife tried a number saddles. She had a Selle Italia womens specific, but it never where perfect (your wife is welcome to borrow it to test, her also being a physio like my wife and all). She finally found a perfect saddle in the Specialized Ariel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
