    I wish the sellers would show the chamois in the product description. i have spent so much money on shorts I don't like any more.

    The Sheebeast Ultra is quite expensive but it may be worth it.
    I see that it's a ten panel construction which sounds promising. Does it have a center seam?
    I personally find them quite unflattering, I don't need my big belly bisected by a seam
    The photo doesn't show that view either.

    Not only that, but a really good description of the chamois would be helpful. Forget all the technical mumbo-jumbo -- how THICK is the chamois; does it extend to the thigh? Etc., etc. That's what's important to me.

    Well, I received both Shebeest shorts yesterday. The SSS will be perfect for my 30 mile rides if not longer.

    The ultra chamois came too high up in the rear. I have never had sit bone issues so this may be an over-kill for me in that area.

    My girlfriend just got a pair of PI micro sensor and althought the chamois is not as thick as the shebeest ultra, it is not as big in the back. I will probably exchange the ultra's for the micro sensor.
