So we did a 40K ride today.

it was amazing.

There was some pressure on the sitbones and on to the ischial bone (forward of the tuberosities). Other than that, no feeling of pressure, heat or numbness on any other part, particularly the girly bits.

I felt supported and stable like in a hammock or something, no chafing from the nose (never had that problem).

Really promising.

I am really torn between taking the plunge and go all the way for the nonpadded composite or a model with the slightest padding.
