Answer Question
Need help choosing sew in chamois pad
Hi Aerotech,
I am having trouble figuring out which sew in chamois pad I should buy for my bike shorts. I am female and older (52) with relatively narrow sit bones ~125mm so I usually ride a men's bike saddle as the women's saddles are too wide. Not sure if that should / would influence women's chamois vs men's or if there are narrower women's chamois in your offerings? I ride gravel and mountain bikes. 2-3 hour rides are not unusual. My current shorts / pads (non-Aerotech) are uncomfortable for anything longer than an hour. So part of me thinks I need more padding and part of me thinks maybe I just need better padding. Help please :)! Thanks!
