I need a wider saddle than those typically fitted as standard so invariably end up having to change them. The saddles I am using are Ergon and I have 2 different models on my bikes both in the medium/large size. On my Levo I have SMC E Mountain saddle. It has a raised back to the saddle which certainly helps with seated climbs but it also needs positioning a little further back on the rails for that reason. On my Whyte I have the SMC Sport Gel. It is very similar in overall design but less ramped on the back and quite a bit softer especially further forward on the saddle.
Both are comfortable but the Sport Gel is my favourite and the one I would recommend
