    I ride Specialized Toupes in a 143, but saddle choice is very personal as I doubt my ass is the same as yours. If you go to a Spec dealer then you have 30 days to exchange the saddle if it's not for you (that's what I did as the Romin wasn't for me) and they'll measure your sit bones to boot.

    This is a really good thing to have done or find a shop that has loan saddles to borrow as everyone is different, for what it's worth I have a Selle Italia Flite on one bike and a Fizik Arione on another and find both great.
