Oldie Newbie - 1st question already!

Hello!

Many years ago I was a member of the Clarence Wheelers cycling club in West London; time trialing and track racing (I was lucky enough to be there at the same time as Tony Doyle). Due to advancing age and weight I have now returned to the cycling world to seek that which was lost - health and fitness.

I have just picked up a Scott Scale 20 MTB which is where the problem lies. The saddle is like sitting on a spare rib!

Any ideas as to a good fast, but comfortable saddle that would be better until my buns bed in?

I want something light, not a Brooks type thing please.

There's just so many to choice from. It all depends on what takes your fancy.

For what it's worth I like the charge spoon on my MTB

And here's what Evans has on offer!

As RedBike says, there are so many on offer; just plump for one.

But being a cyclist from before, it shouldn't take too long for your sit bones to re-acclimatise.

Thanks guys. As soon as I posted this I figured it was a pretty vague question.

My LBS is Evans, there are just too many saddles to choose from. I do not think Evans do a sale or return.
