I need help from PHers. What could be good alternatives to my Sella Italia Flite Flow saddle?

confused Is there anything similar to the Flite Flow that has a more pronounced dip?

I'm a monumental fan of the Selle SMP Stratos. Love it to bits and it was the 1st thing I changed when getting my new bike!! Not cheap, but it's great...for me at least! They do different widths/padding levels etc. I'm tempted by an "evolution" next which is a bit narrower (JUST) and a bit less padding.

Wonderful thing that it is, it's not the lightest (I'd take comfort though thanks!) and due to the angle of it on its bars it can be fiddly to match your current saddle position. Once done though, it's done.

The Pro is my size. I tried plenty of saddles before finding it. And now I have one on every bike and a spare in stock too!

I also, as you might recall, have a red Stratos sat in my box of bits that really needs a good home.

Ah, I remember now! I ended up getting a black one as I didn't think the red would look too good, sorry!! But yes, wonderful saddles smile
