I've tried a number of saddles, all getting a step closer to the one I was looking for and this finally had all of the characteristics I was looking for. I don't see myself switching from this at any point.
My previous saddle had a lot of miles on it (even more km :-)), and the main rib underneath had broken near the front, so it was past time for a replacement. It's very hard to pick a saddle, since there is little opportunity to try saddles out, and everybody's anatomy is different. I finally opted for this one based on reviews.
Width is really important for the comfort of the sit bones; this one is more than ample, maybe a little too ample for me, but that made for a safe choice, and the cutout seemed right. I am pretty light, and the padding seems just right: Firm but comfortable.
I am just a recreational rider, and I don't do as much distance as I used to, but I have about 500 miles on it so far, and it's better than any of the saddles I have ridden in the last 25 years or so.
