I was happy with my fizi:k dolomiti bur recently damaged it in a nonriding accident. I wanted a
new one but the price is now more than the selle italias and that with cr mo rails

What's wrong with CrMo rails?

They're not Ti. Duh. Everyone knows that Ti railed saddles are more comfortable.

I want to buy a Selle Italia Saddle but cant decide between Pro link and flite gel ti. Money is he
same. My riding is mostly short singletrack rides in rocky philladelphia.Height 5'8" W 174. I'm
concerned about the bulge of the prolink and its sharp point. Any tips will be well received. I

Saddles are so very subjective that you shouldn't buy on someone else's experience (unless you're
butt-twins).

That said, for the type of riding you do, I'd go with the Gel Ti. I own 2 of these and have had good
luck with them. I ride the Trans Am on the road (with the cutout), since I'm always sitting, but the
Gel Ti is more durable (Kevlar corners).

You really should try to sit on someone else's saddle of each type if at all possible.
