Dear Jerry,
The 92 was indeed a womans model, it is significantly wider at the back(and heavier) than the 90. That doesn't stop it from being very good saddle in deed. One could easily confuse it with one of the snub-nose track bike sadd les. Just my two cents, but I have one on a men's bike and the fact that it was originally sold as a ladies model causes me no embarasment, and it fee ls very nice to ride on. It is often described (by sellers I guess?) as a t ouring saddle. The real idéale touring saddle was the 88, which whilst wi der than a 90 or 80, is not as wide as the 92.

Was the Ideale 92 Diagonale a woman's model? Or just a touring model? It does look shorter and perhaps wider than a mod 90, but I don't know if it w as designed for women, or just for tourits.
Regards,
Jerry Moos"
