I'm not as happy with the seats I have on my roadies and would like to try a Jett or similar but am reluctant to shell out the dollars if it is going to be a disaster.
I tried the yoga mat method, but it didn't work for me. maybe i should have been sitting there a bit longer, will try again.

as for my 2 Ariel saddles, I don't notice much difference. But then they are on my mountainbikes, where I spend more time standing on the pedals or just leaning my legs against the saddle, not really sitting on it like on the road bike. And I rarely spend more than 2 hours on my mountainbikes (unlike the road which I use for much longer trips).
