FWIW: I have 3 bikes with 3 different saddles. 2 used to give me sores and one does not. Strangely enough, the one that doesn't give me saddle sores is the drop bar gravel bike. My 2 more upright bikes both did it. I found a tip on the brooks website that said to rotate the saddle ever so slightly towards the side where you get the sores...like 1-2 degrees. It's so slight that it's hard to see that it's even been rotated. Once I did that on the 2 more upright bikes I never had a problem again.

For all of the bikes though - I always wear padded shorts and if I'm going longer than 25 miles or so I'll also lube up with Chamois Butt'r...
