    Good luck in your search. I've tried multiple saddles with and without a cutout and multiple shorts with varying shammy thicknesses and I still have problems with chafing on the female parts. I'm currently using the B17 and really like it. Works well for all the other parts.

    Thanks for the reply. I got a B17 on ebay yesterday. How long until your sit-bones didn't hurt?

    I never had any pain with the b17, but I had been riding on other saddles for a year before getting the Brooks.

    You didn't mention what type of bike you are putting this on and what type of riding position and/handlebars, All of those are going to come into play as you probably know, each position puts your "sits" in a different spot. Hope the B17 is the answer!
