I think this is part of my problem as well - I need to break down and purchase a larger container/tube of lube for my chamois. There is a part of me resistant to using it for some odd reason - but it does help when I do.

I am considering testing the SI Lady Gel Flow - which has a full cut-out. I am wondering, however, if it is with the time to do so. The Diva Gel Flow has a full cut-out and the additional pressure on the sides because of the cut-out caused numbness which isn't a good thing. Isn't this an indication that all cut-out saddles would do this? Am I wrong?

My fitter tells me that my very upright position means that saddle issues are much more difficult to solve - which makes sense. Almost all of my weight is on my saddle because of the arthritis in my hands - and is the main reason for my LHT conversion.
