QUOTE(malleus @ Feb 10 2012, 09:51 AM) your butt will also get used to the torture after a while thats what the seller told me since i felt the pain after like riding for 1 minute or so, so i thought, yea maybe.but the more i cycle, the more i felt it's pain, haha. so after cycle like 12km ++ i actually need to step down from the bike and walk for few seconds before i ride again =.=' QUOTE(butthead @ Feb 10 2012, 09:51 AM) unless you have a real terrible saddle... the only think is that i think you need some time to get used to being in the saddle since if i did not interpret wrong that you said you still have pains even after you rested? hm...when i touch the saddle, it seems quite soft, but maybe the design problem? usually we have a chair to fully support our bum but on the bike we rely on our seat bones on a saddle that is no wider than our bum.. and we will be going through the full motions of our hips when pedaling... give it some time or you have a real bony ass... not to say that saddle or padded short will totally cure the problem... but it should help relief it somewhat... and yea, i ride last nite, and until now, i still felt some pain when seating, and when i touch it  i don't think my ass is bony ass though ,haha |

QUOTE(butthead @ Feb 10 2012, 10:32 AM) i posted a couple post or page before this... soft saddle on the contrary doesn't mean a comfortable saddle... it lets your seat bones dig into the soft padding and eventually hit the saddle shell which is hard (just a theory of mine).. hm...well, i bought the bike with my fren yesterday, so both of us own the same thing, haha. whereas, at my hometown, i dont have other friend riding yet, maybe shud find back the seller to let me test his...hahaon biomechanics point of view... it seems to say that soft saddles actually wears you down (tired) faster... i can't comment much on your condition since it sounds a bit too extreme that less than an hour or so in the saddle can cause so much pain... you can try and hop onto a friends bike when you have recovered and see if it happens on another bike / saddle? maybe i shud take a pictar too of my saddle and post here...hmmm |

imo, the 1st 3 issue is just an excuse imo.
1) when work starts at 9am, 1 can always wake up early for that 2) sun yes. but sun only come out after 10, so go earlier. or well, in the evening 3) rain yes, but takkan 365 days always raining? 4) this is an issue for me  5) agree. drivers in malaysia don't give a damned to cyclist. sometimes when cycling, those huge lorry speeding past me is just scary... |
