My good lady is fed up with hearing about how much I love my road bike.

She kicks my butt on a mountain bike and has now decided to extend her dominance to road bikes as well.

I have tried to tell her how horrible it is. Fast, dangerous, small saddles etc, but she has worked out that as long as I buy her a bike that fits and finds a comfortable saddle she can continue to kick my butt.

So ,which saddles should she put on her list of six to try ?

    Charge Ladle. It's the only saddle that Mrs C has found comfortable. Of course, every ar5e is different, but it's a good starting point, and reasonable priced too.
