Submitting this question to you ladies on behalf of my wife.
I just got here new PRfive bike, and we're trying to get her fit properly (tricky, given that we can't actually visit our normal fitter right now). The bike came with the PN 2.1 saddle, which seems to be working great for me...but she's concerned about inner-thigh rubbing. I think at the very least we need to move it back (it's a bit too far forward anyway), and I know there's a definitely "break in" period with learning to ride a noseless saddle (she's been riding a Specialized Amira for the last few years, traditional saddle...which hasn't been the most comfortable).
That all being said, I emailed QR and they also have the PN 3.0 available, so I might be able to do a swap. My wife is 5'3" tall, and has most of her height in her torso.
Do any of you ladies who ride QR have the stock saddle, or do you otherwise have any experience or recommendations regarding the ISM saddles? I'm certainly not above getting her a different brand, but for what tri bikes cost, I'd expect this to be pretty close to spot-on from the get-go. :)
Thanks!!
