it could be your seat does fit you - but just needs a little tweaking to make it work for YOU.
1. set the seat height correctly for your leg length.
2. Now that you have your basic seat position done it’s time to dive into dialing in your fit.
so, once you have a saddle tilt position dialed in you like.
ride the bike and see if pain persists.
SIt bone width tell only part of the story. Sometimes your body will get used to a saddle but sometimes it will only get worse . Before spending money on saddles try adjusting the one you have-- a slight tilt or setback or raising or lowering the saddle can make a huge difference in saddle comfort. I've also spent way too much money on saddles. The only one I found that fit me is the SQ Labs 600 series.
