About 5 hours. Bibs I've worn before for about the same length rides, buttr same thing. On the last 5+ hour ride I did I had even worse problems (major chafing AND swelling), which is why I got the new saddle.

Edit: I'm going to try a ride this week with different shorts, not bibs. I'm a tall guy, and a friend suggested that maybe the bibs are displacing the pad, I do notice a tendency for me to get wedgies with my bib shorts.
