I've got a really pert cute arse, so SDG Belair (titanium rails if you can afford). It's the saddle I can use on long rides and commutes without wearing a nappy.

Spoon and Bel Air are good starting points.

depends on your butt! ive basically got no arse so imtold and only lightweight at around 10.5stone, ive been using a charge spoon for the last month or so, and previously had a gobi xm....the charge spoon has absolutly wrecked my ass on any sort of ride over 1hour.....so ive purchased a gobi again, much more expensive but worth it for the comfort

putting the two side by side, the gobi is MUCH MUCH narrower in the centre compared to the spoon which is quite wide, the wide bits are whats causing me pain....the gobi doesnt have wide side so cant see how its gonna hurt me in that specific place!

so if your a bigger bloke the spoon may well be good, but if your skinny as and got a thin botty then the gobi may be for you!
