I went with the Tethrd Menace (ordered yesterday). anyone have experience with these yet?
This is what I went with. Only two sits in it so far. Very secure feeling and the dump pouches (ordered along with it)work great. Pretty comfy but a tic noisy walking in with it. Not terrible mind you just something of note.

I'd go flex out of those two options. Tethrd makes a skinny boy saddle. I'm 6'4" 280 but my first sit in the saddle was at 340 lbs. The mantis didn't work for my frame. I've strapped on a flex but never spent any time in one. I have a TX5 and love it. But definitely don't be scared to dive into the saddle due to your size. Be weary of the oplux though. If you go with it use a prusik. The distel hitch would slip with me.

I havent tried it but thats a proven saddle shape. I bet that ends up being a comfy saddle. Unlike their other options...
Looks similar to the kestrel with the panels forming that cup shape.
