What are the all-synthetic saddles people have had the best luck with
for touring, commuting, etc? Most of the more intelligent ones outside
of the realm of suspended leather all have leather covers anyway. I'm
built pretty wide in back too, so I've found that wider saddles
contact my sit bones more. I favor touring/commuting position setups
that are somewhat on the upright side. I've been riding a WTB Speed-V
for about a year, and it definitely seems to be among the better of
its class (cheap, all-synthetic, yet made to actually be used rather
than be an easy sell), but it does start hurting me after a while.
What I'm after doesn't have to be cheap but it needs to be wide,
non-leather, and not overly padded. Anybody know what I'm missing?
Thanks
PS: No obvious "Give up and get a Brooks," or "What are
vegans/vegetarians on about, anyway?" comments, plz.
