Ahhh...and the SI Lady Gel Flow was a very bad saddle for me...too soft/wide/pear-shaped.

I like that the channel on the Arione Donna doesn't pinch or put pressure on my girl bits. If the chafing I'm experiencing is from the saddle, then I'm hoping it's a matter of adjusting the fore/aft placement slightly or tilting the nose a bit (perhaps up, since the chafing is back a bit and when DH put it on my bike initially it was down a hair and I immediately felt like I was having to push-back with my hands).
