How do you find the right saddle for road biking?
It is very much like with shoes: very personal. You look for one until you find it and then you use the same model for as long as possible.

Or, one can use service of a tailor, or in this case, bike fit expert, for a price. Sit bones measurement is one of the most affordable things, as a simple cardboard can be used for that.



For complex cases, a custom saddle can be molded specially for you. See an article by Lennard Zinn at VeloNews.
