SDG Bel Air is where it is at in terms of bike saddles, they don't look that comfortable but paradoxically the firmness of the saddle really helps after the first couple of rides. |
Bikes anywhere are pretty similar, you will have a sore arse the first few times you do it, but after that your muscles adjust. Im 16 and a half stone and i find them comfortable enough.
