    I am also in the processes of changing out the stock Lithia on my Ruby. Yesterday I rode about 45 miles on a Jett Comp. Much better, but the Angels weren't quite singing. Around mile 25 the sits were a bit sore, then got way better. Some mild tenderness in the "bones" this am, but I feel like I could get right back on and go again today.

    I was also a bit aware of my bits. If I remember right, we tilted the Jett on my FX down just a hair. I'm thinking I might try doing that today. The saddle is level. And I think the Lithia was too. My FX is a couple hrs away on loan, so can't check it.

    The fitter at lbs thought I might also want to try the Ruby. I know it is highly recommended by many TEers. Wondering what to expect if I were to try the Ruby.

    Thanks all.

    Huh. The 143 Jett works reasonably well for me. If I were to replace it, I'd try a 155 to make sure, but now that I've put some miles on it, it works pretty well.
    At least I don't leave slime trails.

    YES! I'm sorry--where did my brain go...?
