What works for one rider is no guarantee it will work for you - unless you have an identical ar5e...

+1 - nobody can answer that.

Is your set up OK on the bike ? If the position is OK then you're spreading the weight over the contact points fairly well.

You must have a big sit bone width to warrant a 163mm saddle, you are not a woman are you?

That is the first thing I noticed. Have a look on the web for how to measure your sit bones. Also if you get any pain currently this can guide you in which type of saddle you need.

Ive told the OP this numerous times and i think he did say he had done it. Yet he swaps saddles over only after 2 rides because they are not suitable..... apparently. I mean, how can you get used to a saddle after 2 rides?
