But her shorts are made by Terry. VERY nice, thick constuction and a nice chamois. Heck I'm jealous! About $80 per pair but worth it. Nice and thick plus high waisted so no plumber worries!

We did pick up a Terry Liberator gel for the tandem just as a test. She seems to like it alot but only do 50 mile stops on tandem rides.

Might look at a Performance bike shop if they have one near you. I believe they let you return a saddle within 30 days if not happy. Might check on that policy too with the way the economy is changing nowadays.
It is called a treasure chest. Get it right!
