    No one should be in pain while riding. A lot of it has to do with the chamois in your bib or shorts. I have the bontrager aeolus elite and use it with black bibs or castelli with zero issues. I try pearl izumi and I get saddle sores on both legs and numbness everywhere down there.

    • @GCPerformance18

    Most have to do with bike setup. I have a couple saddles with 143mm width all looks the same. I like my Selle Italia TM Novus Flow because of the seat bone to nose on saddle is more narrow. Not too hard and not too soft. I do like to ride in the drops a lot and still comfy on the hoods without moving all around on the saddle. Now I have no more saddle sores. Nice saddle for cheap. All of my shorts are Pearl Izumi.

      Take note of GC Perfs comment regards the power arc and needing to size up. I got measured up in an Aussie specialized dealer, ordered the power arc, and due to the fast roll off ended up missing my sit bones, and got some massive numbness. Dealer wasn't as switched on as GC to realise they would need to order that saddle in a size up from what the specialized computer software was telling us.

  • @PedroPrego
    @PedroPrego 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Actually, I think you've missed one important aspect. Mentioning that carbon rail are always (if not always please let me know which are not) shorter than steel rails or something like that. It's very important because if one is on the limit of saddle adjustment, that change might throw one's fit out of the window.

    • @GCPerformance18
      @GCPerformance18  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      really, I have never noticed that but also in my opinion there shouldn't be a need where you need to push your saddle all the way forward, there should be other adjustments to do before that if you slam it all the forward or back there is something not right on the fit of the bike, maybe look at a setback seat post or a 0 degree set post

    • @PedroPrego
      @PedroPrego 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@GCPerformance18 most bikes have slacker st angles than specialized. My bikefitter recommended me a 65mm saddle setback from the bb when using a spesh power saddle as a reference. With a 73° degree st angle and even a zero setback post I cannot achieve a 65mm saddle setback when using some carbon railed saddles. I might be a weird case for bikefit but a non-carbon rail saddle usually has 20mm more of rail to play with.

  • @jamsxr

    I’m swapping out my Power saddle. It’s not uncomfortable, but it’s been designed for the pro’s, and it naturally pushes you forward in the saddle to get you hunkered down. Going for a PRO Griffon saddle, I want something flatter and longer.

    I currently have a Power on my bike; I recently took off an Infinity saddle. The bike fitter told me there is a sweet spot that we need to find. That being the case, saddles like the infinity and the power reduce the sweet spot because how they are built - for the power the fall off reduces the sweet spot. According to him, some flatter and cheaper seat would work best for most riders. To his point, I got a Peloton in November and it doesn’t bother me, but the community has a lot of problems with it.
    Question for anyone willing to answer:
    On a ride of 40+ miles, do you get to a point where you need to come out of the saddle? For me, if I do ten miles seated the entire time I am surprised. I just need a break.

    • @GCPerformance18
      @GCPerformance18  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      yes tests completely normal, anything that long on a bike d=saddle isn't normal for us to be riding, so naturally we would need to come off the saddle for a break, that's perfectly normal, the more and more you ride the less you will need to do that but whenever you are pushing miles and longer then normal then your body won't be use to it

    I bought the same saddle earlier today. I was going to buy the power pro mirror very cushy but the price tag threw me for a loop. I have saddle sore from riding my old saddle and swelling of the tissue. Not a pleasant feeling. I was measured. I put my bike on the trainer with bib shorts and chammy butter. Right now it a bit uncomfortable cause of the saddle sores and swelling of the soft tissue. That swelling occurred cause of crash so the nose of the old saddle hit my soft tissue. Talk about pain. When I'm healed and can't wait to see how the saddle really feels. But even in my condition it's a major difference from my old saddle. It turns out it was too narrow. So let's see if I go for the power mirror saddle. But I may be ok with the same saddle you have which happens to be 143mm as well. Thanks for the info it helps

    I find as my body composition has improved through cycling, its revealing more the width of my sit bones. I think previously I had more cush to catch and support myself, and now I can really feel when I miss the saddle, or If I just make it on.
    When buying a new bike will stores let you swap out the saddle for a different width of the same model? Or is it just what Trek and Specialized etc supply the store, and you have to factor in a new saddle purchase - even if its just a wider model?

      @@GCPerformance18 Went back and watched this upload again. You made a lot of really great points. This may be the best saddle explanation on the tube, in regards to sizing and functionality. I had a RETUL fit recently, and the guy put me into a 155mm Power Arc, on the premise of "limited flexibility". Bro... I"m 42, 185lbs... and I can touch my toes no Fn problem LOL. Clear attempt to tack on product during my fitting, but I like buying shit... so obviously didn't protest LOL. Consequently I hate the saddle. WAY too wide... and I run a conservative saddle height on an SL7... 182 cm tall... 72.4cm saddle height. Bout to go back to a 143mm Power... w/ mirror of course:--)
