spaso9 Posted July 14, 2010 Share hi all. wondered if any body has tried to get or has experience with custom fit saddles?i think specialized has a programme for it? getting a sore bum and dont wanna get saddle sores, as got some raw areas now, and wondering if it is the saddle?have taken up mtb and doing 70km races and training for stage races, so maybe its just the increased time in the saddle?does the skin harden up with more training? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassie Posted July 14, 2010 Share Try using some "saddle creams"I find the milking cream that you can buy at a vet / co-op quite useful!!never had any problems with sores... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RodTi Posted July 16, 2010 Share Hours in the saddle will harden you up - but if the problem persists, you might need to make a change. Do your research though - plenty of options out there... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RodTi Posted July 16, 2010 Share Ditto on the creams - most decent LBS's will sell "their" preferred saddle/chamois cream - get yourself some, they can work miracles.... Also - make sure that your riding shorts/bib-shorts aren't the cause of the problem! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
