Butt-cheek chafing = too-wide saddle?

[nscrbug]

I did the rough sit bones measurement...about 133 mm. So reading the Jett recommendations, do you go for the 130 or the 143? There are so many saddles that don't give the measurements. I was looking on the Terry website but didn't see measurements for saddles. Ugh, this is a horrible process. Can't wait to find the right saddle!

Terry does indeed give saddle measurements...however, they give it in "inches", rather than in "millimeters". All you have to do is take the measurement and plug it in to a metric conversion calculator (just google metric conversion) and it will convert inches to millimeters. I'm currently eyeing up the new Terry FLX, which is 10.25 x 5.6 inches...converted to millimeters those measurements come out to 260 x 142mm. Many of the Terry saddles are 6 inches wide, which is 152.4mm.

I thought if I looked long enough I'd find the thread in which Knott posts a lot of essential saddle fit for women (and some men) tips. Knott is very wise
