I just wear bib shorts and i do not have issues
It seems to be, what most people who actually cycle wear.

Just don't sit on your ass? The upright bike meme is cancerous.

>>2043961
Take it one step further and just don't ride bicycles like a homosexual.

deer tallow

my ass where it touches the saddle is basically as rough as knees and elbows, nothing I can do about that, but as long as I'm diligent with a clean bib shorts and chamois cream before the ride and taking them off immediately after and showering with a loofah and then moisturizing with first a buffer layer of cerave SA cream and applying a finish of 0.05% tretinoin gel blended with 20% azelaic acid and additional SA cream and an as-needed 50/50 blend of hydroquinone/mometasone fuorate to preemptively hit insect bites or other potential PIH sources (have to be careful with that one because it's strong shit), then be sure to not put on pants and work from my standing desk for the first 30 minutes before finishing getting dressed, I don't have issues and my legs/ass are as good as any woman (male) ass

It works, especially on longer rides if you apply a fuck ton of it to your groin and the side of your groin, and add a little to the chamois as well.

just get some bibs like non retarded people

Okay Patrick Bateman

god i cant even imagine what its like to have a bike gf with a huge ass like tht, and she wears the bike shorts. imagineyou go on a long sweaty ride with her and when youre done she takes them off and gives them to you for you to inhale for the next hour

brap brap sniffffff

Bibs that fit well (so that the chamois stays fixed in place, with no seams that create pressure spots) and saddle that suits your posture well are the most important things. Anti-chafing cream ('chamois cream' is a bit of misnomer) won't magically fix things if you don't get those two right, but it does help protect your skin since some friction is inevitable no matter how perfect your setup is. Personally I find how long the ride is determines how useful chamois cream is: for 1-2 hours I don't really need it, 2-4 hours it's noticeably helpful, 4+ hours not having means I'll be in pain if I sit on a saddle the following day even if there aren't any particular sore bumps.

I use the cream very sparingly and find you don't really need to put it anywhere except the spots where your skin is going to be exposed to pressure from the saddle. Someone gifted me an 8oz tube of Chamois Butt'r 10 or so years ago and I still have 20-30% of it left today. This past Christmas I snagged an 8oz tube of their "Euro style" cooling version to try and I really like it.

Correct fit. Correct saddle, Correct pants, Correct embrlocation. Proper riding form that puts maximum weight on feet and minimum on ass. Go faster.

>>2043922
Why would one need padding on a mountain bike? The lift ride is not that long.

>>2044088
>"Euro style" cooling version
That sounds unpleasant

>>2044095
I unironically wear a pad if i do laps at the bikepark tho.
Lifting 6 times or more is more uncomfortable than a 6h ride on my roadbike without one.

Bump for coomers

>>2043922
>I only experience deep muscular soreness on very long rides
I bought a seat with inbuilt suspension and didn't have this issue anymore.

>>2043922
>now those padded cycling shorts are suddenly making more sense
You snobbing the common practice for endurance riding speaks volume on why you have a sore ass skin. Get a proper bib, get a proper saddle from a recognized brand (selle italia, prologo etc). and maybe get your bike setup checked.

Women with big asses like that are for use as brood sows only, not for pleasure or companionship

>>2043922
i've ridden centuries in exofficio boxers and mtb shorts on a brooks. git gud

>>2043922
there's a reason everyone rides wearing chamois shorts even though they look and feel slightly ridiculous

I can only ride Brooks because the leather adjusts for my wonky sitting bones.
It's hard to see but the left impring is about 8mm deeper than the right.
And thats still not enough. Need about 1.2cm

I rode a 1500 mile event in 10 days wearing bibs and using chamois cream as usual, no sores or chafing
I rode for 3 hours without either on a casual trip with some non-cycling friends, got horrific chafing
Yeah it makes a huge difference

>>2043922
ale bym ruchał w dupę taką czarną rowerzystkę
penie z dupy do mordy by brała też, eehhh

Try doing your laundry with some gentle - ideally anti-allergic - liquid detergent, not with your regular washing powder. There are always some irritating residues after washing powder and rubbing them into the skin often causes local reaction.

>>2054432
weak genes lmao

>>2054462
btw, you may try pure glycerin first instead of this cream as it isn't nearly as gross; it's water soluble etc. It's the main working ingredient of all skin care products (aftershave among them) - also perfectly safe and non-allergic - and it lubricates the skin (thus reducing friction) as well as keeping proper moisture. You'd want about 40% to 50% glycerin solution in water; you should buy medical grade glycerin in some pharmacy or something and you may eyeball the solution - if you buy pure 100% glycerin and then add the same amount of water to it you will get a 50% solution. You don't need to be precise.

>just wear bib shorts
This.
Also if you don't want to go full fred I have better experience with bib undies + light sports shorts vs integrated bib shorts. While undies are free to perfectly fit body shape the integrated bib-shorts always get weirdly tensioned and pulled by outer shorts misplacing or rubbing them.

And avoid the thick ones - extra material is what presses, rubs and irritates. You need only enough to wick you dry and isolate skin from any outer fabric movement. I don't even know what the extra thick padding is for. Maybe for heavy persons who completely compress the thinner one.

I got serious butt cheek chaffing today riding my fixed gear bike 14 miles for the first time. I'm gonna have to stay inside all day tomorrow to get my asshole healed. It's very tender. Sucks bros

What did I do wrong? Are fixies harder on ur asshole compared to normal bikes?

Not sure why this happened. I've been riding my normal bike all year with no chaffing issues until today riding my new fixie.

>>2054894
your saddle probably isn't set up right

>>2054394
Brooks encourages bad hip position. It's like putting an old fashioned lazy boy recliner on your bike

I ride about 200 miles weekly in regular jeans. Occasionally some discomfort. At the beginning there was a bit of soreness but eventually it stopped. I hope I'm not damaging anything doing this.

>>2043922
I don't have this problem, my inner thigh hurts really bad and my muscles get all acidic.

>>2058205
okay boomer

>>2058314
brooks are specifically made for boomers though

Still waiting to hear why this isn't a good idea

OMG is that a woman's butt. I might just cum from looking at it!!!

>>2063281
wear diapers or change diet. There is definitely something wrong with you

>>2063281
you might want to consult with one of those woke new "doctors" if they're legal in your jurisdiction, otherwise just eat raw meat and get lots of sunshine

>>2063281
there's something very wrong with your gut, my man

>>2063281
i have never experienced this and i eat really bad, maybe get better underwear or something

>>2063292
just change diet, do not wear diapers. they will break apart on the narrow seat of a bike and even if they did work and not leak it's not like you won't stink

>>2063151
this, but unironically. OP pic is a top shelf brapper
