@NNN has a question about riding in an upright position:
Q2. When I try to ebike an hour each way using a Dutch/upright position on a sprung Brooks Flyer saddle, my bottom gets sore. But I can ride 2+ hours on a MTB or roadbike with hard saddle OK.
Any advice for getting comfy in an upright riding position?
@ascentale @NNN #BikeNite A2: Skimmed over the existing answers, didn't see much of what I think on this, so here are my thoughs:
* Brooks leather saddles need a few hundred km or miles "sit in" until they're comfortable. A "sit in" by another person probably doesn't work or makes things worse.
* Brooks Cambium (non-leather) saddles are hard as f🤬ck.
* They say that upright bikes need wider saddles than road bikes.
* Surface material (especially its slippiness) can affect soreness as well.
