Eventually I wound up getting the B68 (not the B68S) because the B17 was not quite wide enough in back for my very wide sit bones. The B68 fits me perfectly.
Can only speak for myself, but when i don't use any lube that's when I get that kind of discomfort up front. I use simple hypo-allergenic hand cream. Cheap and not greasy. Works for me!
