I love my fizik saddle.  I use the arione.  It's the best saddle I've ever used.  i haven't had one ounce of trouble with it.

 

A lot of ppl suffer from numb balls on the Arione!

Wesbrad, agreed.  But zeee, listen to what spidey says.  See if you can lend a Arione from someone and do a weeks riding with it (include 2 x long weekend rides).  You might be lucky with the Arione, or not.

yes, Rookie. take it from me. One time, I got a new bike and I didn't get the seat I wanted. I just put up with it. I can still feel the pain it generated. I have a photo of me racing it the first day. I look at my face and know it's a grimace of agony, and not of someone trying hard! Get the right seat now, ask for female specific.

As you know, there are no muscles between your legs and that's the part in contact with the seat. You ride each day, don't you Rookie, and when you have the wrong seat, you need to recover between rides. You should not have to. It's just not healthy for other reasons also.

How long have you been riding?  If you just started out any saddle will make your butt hurt.  Your butt muscles first has to become firm, that takes time.  At leat 3-4 weeks.
