I commute on a genesis day 01 road bike each day to and from central Bristol UK and what really is a sore point (little pun ) on my bike is the bloody saddle. I have tried over the last 6 months various saddles (borrowing from cycle shops) and always returning with no luck...still uncomfortable espec those soft bits. So I need a saddle with a cut away in the middle at a reasonable price..anyone recommend some to look at or even got one for sale? It really makes saddle riding unenjoyable when your ****ocks are being rocked and rolled each day any suggestions...have you found the perfect saddle?

I'm planning to buy one here in NY. But to be honest I really have no idea how to discern a good bike...
Any suggestion?
I've seen cycling shorts with pads on it... Can that help?

Hi Daze
I presume you have the bike and you are buying a saddle....padded shorts are essential but also a good saddle...i'm looking to buy one at the moment...i'll let you know
