I'm intrigued by the cult-like following for the Dash saddles, and am tempted to give one a try but I'm not sure which one to try. I'm currently riding a Specialized Power Arc saddle (143mm), and it's OK, but the cutout isn't large enough (I'm still getting some numbness), and the nose isn't quite wide enough. I'm not the type of rider that rides way out on the nose of a saddle with my junk hanging out. I like to sit back a bit on the saddle, which is why I suspect I like the Power Arc more than most people here do for a tri bike. I briefly tried an ISM PR2.0 and HATED it.

So, I'm looking at the Dash offerings, and it looks like the Strike 9 has a shape similar to the Power Arc, but with a much wider channel and slightly wider nose. I'm tempted to give one a try, but I'd love to hear from anyone here that has ridden a Power Arc and can compare it to any of the Dash offerings.

Thanks!
