I used to have a Brooks B17 special on a bike that was stolen; this saddle was very comfortable but was a bit of a pain to keep dry in wet weather. I now have a Madison Flux on my current bike. I know this saddle gets a good review from WMB but this saddle just doesn’t seem to suit me. I don’t want to spend more than about £40, I was looking at the Superstar Peak, which has a leather top but I’m not sure if this will be more suited to me. Hoping someone has direct comparison of the Madison Flux and Superstar Peak.

    Without pictures of your butt it's hard to say. Post in crudcatcher please though.

    I appreciate it’s not easy to say. Unfortunately, I don’t have any pictures of my derriere, (not that I know about anyway).
    I’m looking for something a bit softer and slightly wider than the Madison Flux. Looking at pictures of the Superstar Peak it seemed to suit. And the price is good.

    try emailing Superstar and asking for some measurements. they may take a few days to reply but have been helpful to me in the past.
