I have one of those WTB's on the commuter. Seems OK. Made the mistake of wearing padded shorts with it a few times, horrible.
You should be able to measure your own sit bones, and apply that to the fizik, or spesh system. Should give you a decent start point.
I run one of these on the fixed, and despite appearances, my bum loves it. So I measured what looked to be the sit-bone contact points, and compared it to other saddles. The SLR looked to be pretty darn close, so I've gone with that. Reviews have compared it more to the shape of a Flite though, so maybe I'm wrong.
The point is, getting the sit-bone fit right is far more important than, cut-outs, long noses, gel inserts etc.
