Ladies Saddle Recommendation???

[punkypossum]

Have you tried one? Don't knock it until you have.

I haven't - but no matter how comfy it might be, afaic they are just so fugly, I couldn't go there...the only bikes they look ok on are really old traditional looking ones.

I know there will be lots of people who disagree, but personally, there is no way I would have a brooks on a mtb!

Anyone mentioned the Charge Ladle. Someone has got one. Might be theclaud but I'm not sure.

Note to self: Punky malignes Brooks saddles.......

Edit: £20 from here. I got my Spoon from there

Victoria - I live north of the river (and up a hill of course), you are welcome to come and try a Dawes standard issue saddle, a Specialized BG Windle XC, or a Terry Liberator X. Sorry I don't have a Brooks.

And if I can fit a saddle then anybody can... you just need an allen key.

I'm up by the downs - and the other half has a couple of saddles you could try from a Selle italia Ldy thing that's fairly padded but relatively narrow to a quite hard but apparently very comfortable (she had exactly the same problem as you) Charge Spoon saddle.

Highly recommended. nb. Selle Italia are the manufacturers of Terry's saddles so they have a similar feel.

Their dealers have a range of loaner saddles so you can try before you buy.
