Alright All,
I have not been putting in longer distances on my bike for some time - usually 30/35miles max but I have started doing some longer rides as the weather is nice and its good to go out and just ride. Yesterday i did 52 miles but found my backside was really starting to give me grief towards the end of the ride.
I figure that my backside is pretty used to riding now but it is a new saddle - Fizik Arionne Wing Flex.
How long does it normally take to break a saddle in?
What saddles do peolpe find comfy for longer rides?
I wear a assos bib that is well padded and was riding mainly using the handlebars yest as opposed to dropping onto the tri bars - so I was probably pretty central on the saddle and not sitting on the nose.
