New Bike Search: Thoughts on the Jamis Satellite Sport

[sarahspins]

And yes, I'm leaning toward a Brooks. I NEVER have trouble with my sit bones, though. I ALWAYS have trouble with the girly-soft-parts.

If your sit bones aren't actually supporting you, they probably won't hurt I went through a string of saddles last year and everything BUT my sitbones was just killing me.. then I finally stumbled on a saddle that did hit my sitbones (mine are on the wide side) and the difference was like "whoa, so that's how it's supposed to work..." and then at that point they were sore for a few weeks. That saddle was one of the lower-end Selle SMP saddles, and ultimately I decided it was too squishy and too wide through the nose. It was fine up to about 20 miles or so, but much past that I was getting some sore spots and chafing.

I test rode my road bike with the stock saddle on, and it was clear that my sit bones were literally "off" the edges of it... obviously I put one of my brooks on it right away when I brought it home. So I have a b.68 s on my road bike
