I have been riding on the Jett though it feels best when climbing. I still feel that a more t-shaped saddle would be better. Any ideas?

Chafing at the back of my leg (crease) by the edge of the saddle, worse on the right. This was really bad with the SI lady gel flow. Sit bones are approx 130. I also have quite a bit of trouble trying to get the right position on the Jett, will try to move the saddle back a bit tomorrow.
No problems at all in terms of fit. I love it. Besides being more T-shaped, the cut-out fits me better than the Jett's. The carbon rails make me nervous though (not to mention I'm sure they add to the price of the saddle) - but I see on SI's website that this year's model Gel Flow has metal rails. You give up 40 grams ... which is half the weight of the sweat that lodges in my bra. :rolleyes:
Have you ever tried a narrower Saddle? After measuring my sit bones, I used the Specialized Ruby 155 for the last year and a half, but still had some chafing issues. I testrode the Specialized Jett 143 for the last 2 weeks, and despite my measurements are suggesting something different, it's wide enough and does not chafe like the Ruby.
