I have had issues with this chamois every time I've worn the suit but I keep wearing it anyway. It's not a bad amount of padding and it dries quickly, it's just a little wide for me so it chaffes in the leg crease. It doesn't bother me in the least on the run though - so it has to be a combination of the saddle+chamois causing the issue. I can ride this saddle on this bike with other shorts and not have quite the problem, but this is my only tri suit so I don't really have other options. Silly, I know.
I'm going to try trimming the edges of the chamios if I can (it looks like there is extra material outside the stitching). I'm not sure what else to try!
To be fair, I also had painful chaffing issues under my arms from my wetsuit (sleeveless) that I've never had before, so maybe it was just a "delicate skin" race for me for some reason! It was the day before my period...so maybe it was a hormonal thing?
