Try a few in the shop, but sit on it for more the a few minutes if you can.
BTW, nether region numbness from cycling is no laughing matter - that can lead to a serious medical condition. It's not so much that you need to harden up, it's that you need to avoid doing anything that stops you from ... ahem .. hardening up ...  |
Presactly.
Wife has a gel seat and it is better for me. I'll get one tomorrow. I rode mine today for 5km, and my butt was crying after 2.5... my gingangoolies survived thanks to good underdaks though
It was 38°, so not "user friendly" day for it.
