The bike shop switched out seats for me - the original one was designed for 30+ mile racing. This one's specifically for women, and more of a commuter-ride seat.
[the difference in shape and, yes, where the padding is placed, makes a huge difference]
I swapped out the saddle on my bike last year, for a cushiony gel commuter one, and it's made a huge difference. Still hurts a bit, but not like it did with the mountain bike racing saddle!
I need to get the folding commuter bike tuned up and see how I like riding that in town...
