Looking for something comfortable that can be used for training as well as long distance rides of 100m on back to back days. I'm currently on a giant contact sl, which isn't particularly comfortable or that light. It starts to become annoying after about 40m or so, this is on 25mm tubeless at the correct pressure. Weight isn't a major focus as I don't race. Not overly concerned with budget as long as it's comfy, although ideally no more than £130 max.

I was looking at the morgaw forsage but wondering if a more traditional design would be better?

Some say rail material doesn't make much difference, maybe for heavier riders? I'm 73kg if that helps.

The fabric and fizik saddles seem well worth a look. The problem with trying in a shop is that most things feel fairly comfortably to begin with, it's only after extended periods you know what's right. Similarly, something that isn't the most comfy initially can turn out to be ok after hours.
