Biking Shorts vs New Seat

[StwBusa]

Thought I would share a little something... Just in case its not widely known..
When I go for a loooong ride I wear Biking Shorts/Underwear.. They have a large Gel pad in the crotch area which helps tremendously in padding that area of our bodies that seems to have no natural padding whatsoever.. bobos Sporting goods sell them for around $26 ....A lot cheaper than a gel seat and I suspect just as effective....


Do with this info as you will.... They work for me..

sounds like the perfect name to sell those!

But really, they do work nice for those non-padded areas....

[ResidentEvil]

Thank you . I've been thinking about those for awhile now somebody on another forum said they work well.

No worries.... Now be aware they are not a panacea for all seat related issues but do improve matters considerably (for me at least)

Just a note: You don't wear underwear with cycling shorts. Just the shorts alone. I assume you mean that you are wearing cycling shorts underneath your leathers? I usually wear underarmour type long pants under my one piece leathers so that you can actually get your leathers off on a hot day!

Point taken... I guess I meant I am using them as underwear

I wear them under my leathers whenever I'm going for a long ride.

i started wearing those last summer when i picked up mountain biking. the chamois shorts make riding the bus a little more comfortable ,especially long rides.

I always thought about trying a set out, but thought I'd look like a muffin in them. With my "top" bulging out and all....

Siding shorts, compression shorts...didnt any of you guys play Baseball or Hockey? I been using them for uhm...let me see?? 40 years? yeah that's it..a long frickin time!

Excellent under leathers whether you wear the padded kind or not.

Just don't take off your leathers in public.

No.. that was Al Gore .. Right??

I don't plan on it. NOBODY wants to see that...

This is an interesting idea and as much as i will feel like a tool going in to buy them i am going to try. Thanks for the tip.
