I definitely had this problem with a seatbag I used to have; it was hard to find another one that fit the small geometry of my bike(s). It took years for me to solve this.

I had/have issues with some of them. I figured it was because I was "too" fat from thighs and they were rubbing on seat. But why on some and not others? Hummm
Probably the type of fabric on shorts? Some a more or less slippery than others too.
I know my top tube bag rubbed against my longer (3/4) pants and that damaged the knee area. It was the velcro that rubbed and the fact it was not perfectly centered.

Crankin, what bag did you use to solve this problem?? I wore holes in two pairs of (cheap) bibs from my saddle bag. I don't think there was a velcro closure rubbing me - I believe it was the actual bag, although I no longer remember. For a while I carried my spare kit in a ziplock bag in my jersey but that's annoying, and currently I'm using a top tube bag which I hate because it moves around a bit and looks so freaking dorky!
It was a Cannonde bag. I fixed the problem with covering up the Velcro or something where I made the bag not so apt to move around; I did not get a new bag, though. It was awhile ago and I can't remember. I have a different bag on my Silque, which looks like it is precariously low to the tire, but it doesn't move around at all like the other one did.
