Saddle comfort has as much to do with your backside as the saddle design itself. How long have you been riding with the new saddle? How many miles? I usually find it takes my butt (mainly my sit bones) a month of regular riding to fully adjust to a new saddle. By "fully adjust" I mean feeling no pain or discomfort during/after a 100km ride. I hate wearing padded cycling shorts, and changed to B17 saddles on my 5 or so bikes over the last 15 years. I normally ride 5 or more hours per day when I can.
