Oh, fine, ruin my newly-minted catchy phrase. :p
I use lube on my sit spots, but hadn't thought to use it more in front. I'll give that a try, thanks for the suggestion.
The shorts I'm using are just the house brand from Mountain Equipment Coop. They're really the first pair of shorts I've ever bought, and I'm now in the market to upgrade. Just not sure what to upgrade to!
I'll give PI's a look!
I ride in no bike shorts with my Brooks. I think having a micro-adjust seat post is crucial with these so you can adjust the angle properly - so it doesn't jab you in the vadge - and you don't slide off like I did on my first ride when I came to a stop. :D Once I tweaked and fiddled with it - it seems great! If it is comfortable now, I can't wait until it's actually broken in.
woo hoo! naked cycling!Quote:

What I was trying to say is the Brooks should be comfortable enough to ride without padded shorts.
You're so silly!Quote:

Does this mean you need more Proofide or less?Quote:
