    Oi, Selle SMP (or parent company)--you should give these ladies a commission. It's not in the cards right now, but I'm contemplating getting one for the road bike, probably the Lite 209. Things get a little unpleasant in the drops, and if I acquire a new roadie in the future, I can move it to that--the Jett doesn't seem like it'll agree with the more aggressive geometry I want. Too many models to make a choice. :/ I'm confused.

    Zoom, you've used a Jett, but what version was it? It seems like the Jett I have on the road bike (picked up on clearance--it's got the gray sit spots) seems firmer than the current version. It's got some squish at the sit spots and a bit at the nose, but it's not as cushy as more recent ones. Something between the Ruby and the Jett in firmness would be good, but if it's about equivalent to the old Jett, we're good.

    I *think* the Jett is okay on my CX bike. Still playing around with the position, but I haven't gotten enough miles in yet to say for sure.

    (I should have picked one up when I still had my job...)
