Yes, you're completely right. I'm just trying to collect some contenders that will accomodate my wider-spaced sit bones. The problem with the Jett is actually its shape - the curve of the interface between the nose and the back of the saddle - is what is causing the chafing.

Ugh - this whole saddle fiasco is becoming expensive. I never decide it has to go until I've ridden it too much to return it.
