quinton Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 Does anyone know what the trick is behind mounting and positioning for the most comfortable ride? I have read that a lot of people find this the most comfortable saddle but at the moment it is KILLING my @ss!! quinton2008-02-18 01:18:21
Mudsimus Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 1. Loosen the big bolt beneath the saddle.2. Remove saddle3. Go to your lbs4. Buy a specialized saddle. No jokes....I could not get that saddle comfortable no matter what I did.
AndreZA Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 Make sure you sit on the widest part. BTW, the "most comfortable" does not neccessarly include your behind. Wat not the mot comfortable me me either.
Jason Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 quinton, how old is the saddle and how many km's have you done on it? I find that a new Fizik saddle takes about 2 weeks to wear in and after that it's snug.
quinton Posted February 18, 2008 Author Posted February 18, 2008 Eish I have done about 500km on the saddle and it is killing me.
NotSoBigBen Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 Wat not the mot comfortable me me either. Hey Parra, long day already .......
Spinnekop Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 Eish I have done about 500km on the saddle and it is killing me. So it is about a week old? Another week and you should be fine.
Jason Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 Refer to Mud Dee's post and follow steps 1 to 4Are you at least using shorts with a shammy in? Weird, I know knappy was also saying after yesterdays race that his a$$ can't get used to the Fizik.
AndreZA Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 Wat not the mot comfortable me me either. Hey Parra' date=' long day already ....... [/quote'] I saw that while I was busy typing and when I pressed backspace it posted it for some reason. Okay back to "k@k seats"
MichaelH Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 Give it a few weeks and you will like it.it took me almost a month and now i love it.
AndreZA Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 OKAY!!!! I guess he needs to give it a few weeks.
Mudsimus Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 Maybe you should just give it a few weeks. You never know.
quinton Posted February 18, 2008 Author Posted February 18, 2008 Thanks folks, I will give it a few weeks and clearly need to ride it a little more often if some of you are training is 500km a week.
quinton Posted February 18, 2008 Author Posted February 18, 2008 Guess what... I am going to give it a few weeks.
