I rode 52 miles Thursday on my bike..I ride an Orbea with a Terry gellisimo saddle..Love it..so during and after my ride, my left knee began to hurt in the front so I raised my seat maybe 1/4 inch. I rested a day and in the meantime bought aero bars for my bike...Couldn't wait to try them...Husband and I rode on Saturday morning.. 30 miles..Ok so I go to try my aero bars and when I use them my hips rock back and forth and this puts major friction on my "clit". The ride feels really good, bars and all, but I cannot take this rub..Even with chamois butter..No,Can, Do....My question is, should I change seats and get one with a slit down the whole seat, should I get a shorter saddle, and are there adjustments that I can do to fix this problem.. HELP>>> I know I am not the first that has had his problem..I am still sorta new at all of this and I figure this is the place to come to for suggestions on how to fix this...Any suggestions.... I actually moved my seat forward a fraction and went up with it some..My knee stopped hurting, but this doesn't work when I bend over to use the bars...What to do???? Help
