I want to learn to climb and yes I have someone who is a professional that can safely teach me the basics. Although budget is always a consideration I do put a high value on comfort. I'm 6' 3", 210lbs, about 40 waist and I have very large thighs. $400 would be a fine price point but if there's a lot more comfort to be had at $500 then it's worth it in my book. Since I don't know how to climb I can't really say what style I will lean towards, SRT, MRS, or other. So basically I am looking for some recommendations on a reasonably comfortable saddle for a guy with large thighs, and something that would possibly have better resale value if I end up deciding that climbing isn't for me. I have read older threads about different gear but sometimes manufacturers change things and info from 5-10 years ago is no longer valid.
