I'm actually a little sad that this worked. Now I'm out $125.

On a related note, my performance century shorts came today as well. People have complained about the stitching on these. I should have listened. They started coming apart before I even put them on. Hopefully they'll take them back.

glad to hear the Toupe is working... I welcome the sore sit bones... would rather thave a sore butt then a numbness where it counts.


FWIW, I crashed my toupe last week in a race, but was able to replace it for 100 bucks at my LBS. They gave me one off a S-works Tarmac. Crappy white and red color (doesn't match bike too well) but I saved $50 bucks.
