A little numbness and two seconds out of the saddle and that is fixed. I am really rethinking the whole cutout thing in general. WOW.
Congratulations on figuring out what your butt needs! Not everyone needs a cutout, for sure. For those of us who do then we really do, but for those who don't they can certainly cause a problem. It seems to take forever sometimes to figure out what our butts need
