It still works, but I'm finding I need to get out of my saddle more often to let my butt relax a bit. If it helps, I'm a 215lb rider, and I usually ride on the saddle, rarely off of it. I do use these shorts for mountain biking as well.
So my question... How long is a chamois pad supposed to last? I just want to HTFO, in comfort.
is that the blue, ridged chamois? if so, it's the worst. chamois. ever.
