About a year ago I finally found a saddle that didn't make me go numb and felt OK. Most saddles I tried I had numbness after less than an hour or just didn't fit right (caused major pain when I urinate). I have given up on a saddle that I would call comfortable. I'm not sure it exists after 7 saddles. I only have one discomfort on this saddle - I have pain in my hamstrings within 15 minutes of starting my ride. I can usually ignore it, but after a couple hours, it gets to be pretty annoying. Any thoughts on what might be causing this? Is this a product of saddle height/position? Or do i need to start the search again?
Right now I have a Selle Italia SLK. I have tried and not liked the following:
Selle Italia Flite (with cut out - very painful and numbness)
Bontrager Race that came on my brother's Trek Madone (no cut out, major numbness)
Bntrager Select (looks like a beach cruiser saddle - too bulky, too much padding)
Koobi Enduro (major numbness after about 20 minutes)
Fizik Airone (sharp pain in the under area)
Selle San Marco (can't remember the model. painful to say the least)
Thanks!
