fikus, some of us are more uh.. sensitive than others.. You won't get a callus on your bum, but if the saddle isn't an instrument of torture, you'll get used to riding it. If it is excruciating, it could be that it isn't going to fit... or you might just need the saddle lowered or raised or tilted.
some people will not buy used shorts, but I've done it and i'm not the only one.
happy hunting!

I doesn't hurt when I am riding, it hurts the next day when I get back on. I took a free spinning class and that was even worse. I couldn't ride my bike for the next 3 days
I have tried different seat heights and I think I found the sweet spot but I think I might need one of those saddles with the middle cut out.
