Just tried a Selle Italia Flite Gel Flow,
http://www.wiggle.co.uk/p/cycle/7/Selle_Italia_Flite_Gel_Flow_Saddle/5360031333/
to replace my broken Specialized Toupe. The idea was to find one with a cut out, but with better build quality. Felt like my sit bones were sliding off each side during each pedal stroke. Checked the toupe, and its width is 143mm compared to the Flite's 130. How much it's also because the Flite curves down at the edges as well, I don't know. Lots of saddles seem to be around 130. I'm undecided between just getting another Toupe, or trying a slightly flatter saddle like the SLR.
