    Does that affectively widen or narrow the distance between sit bones?

    The saddle is flat - doesn't curve in either direction. It feels good in all other respects. I really like that I don't slide around on it. I like the narrow nose. It doesn't hurt me anywhere else.

    Thanks for the input everyone. Maybe I can get the bike shop to loan me a 155 saddle so I can see if it helps. It may not be too late for them to swap out saddles for me if I'm going from one Jett to another.

    You know, mimi, not everyone thinks Brooks are awesome, heavy or otherwise. I think my saddle is awesome (and RUSA women recommended it) but there are plenty who don't like it. I'm glad your Brooks saddle is awesome for you though.
