Best way to stop my bum aching when im on my mountain bike? |
Just bought a mountain bike. Been out twice and find im in agony 30 mins into the bike ride..HELP Silly question from me....Do you have the right saddle? There are saddles for male and female bottoms.....could this be the problem? stop riding in the mountains!!!!!! Simple! proper cycle shorts, Shammy leather ones. Your saddle will feel like you are sitting on a comfy couch,well nearly!! Get off and carry your bike! Problem fixed Use of the word "bum" suggests middle America? Change the bike's seat. Get one with better padding. buy a better brand seat cause these days with the seats that come with them r most standard First thing to try, because it costs virtually nothing, is to adjust the bike seat. Try tilting it forward a little, or back a little. If the agony you're feeling is centred around your tailbone, then chances are you need a more padded seat, or proper cycling shorts. Look for cycling shorts with a chamois gusset or specialized for mountain biking (such as those made by Roach Clothing). Mountain biking shorts typically have two-part construction: a spandex inner layer, and a loose-fitting outer layer. Bike seats come in a variety of shapes and sizes. Male and female bodies are built differently down there, so look for a seat that is made for you. And the first one you pick might not be the best one for you, so make sure that the store has a good exchange policy and that you can try the seat and exchange it for a different one. |
