    I was going to try the Dolce but the LBS guy insisted I try Jett.
    WTF? Because the Jett is $105 and the Dolce is $53??? Or maybe he just didn't have a Dolce in stock and wanted to foist off on you what he did have?

    If you were having that much sitbone pain you definitely want something with a little more padding! At least to give you a chance to toughen up!

    Personally - I would find the Dolce too squishy for me, but I have a friend who rides upwards of 7,000 miles a year on her Dolce and LOVES it. She just buys a new one every year since they're so inexpensive.

    If you like the general shape and cutout of the Specialized saddles, definitely try one of their softer ones to begin with!


    ETA: if you were on your sitbones with the narrower saddles, and not putting your weight on the soft tissue, then those are probably plenty wide for you.
