It sounds like your skin might be getting chafed. Sweating a lot can make the problem worse. Shorts that feel fine in cooler weather can cause irritation when you get very sweaty. You might want to try some chamois butter. And wash or shower right after you finish your ride, get out of your sweaty shorts as soon as you can.
Hey, sorry I didn't see your reply before! I've had this saddle for a couple years now and gone on a few 2-to-3-day trips with it, but I just got
the bib shorts this month. They're designed for hot weather, but I still sweat a lot in them--Taiwan is hot in August, even at night! I think you may be right about the chafing. If chamois butter doesn't fix it, I'll explore other options.
