50% of the people that rode the Paris-Brest-Paris were sitting on Brooks or other leather saddles. that's a 1200km ride in 90 hours. If you're not racing and freaked out about every ounce, you might look at a Brooks

Any thoughts on where chafing occurred? I didn't like the stitching on the SI saddle. Measured around 160? Maybe too pear? Pinching my extra meat at the top of my leg.
Exactly that spot! Will the Jett provide all day comfort?

I switched to the Jett 143 (my sitbones are in the 125-130 range)--and it's nearly perfect. It took some getting used to because it's a lot firmer than the Selle Italia I used to have, but my butt and girly bits aren't sore!
At least I don't leave slime trails.
