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.
