Saddles

[OldBean]

My new Focus Jam has a rather uncomfortable saddle for my boney bum!
Anybody using the gel insert saddles that claim to move with your bum?and therefor more comfortable ?
Have fun.

Saddled are very personal, my advice is to get to a bike shop and get measured. Don’t worry, it doesn’t involve some spotty yoof messing around your nethers with a tape measure, they should have a heat sensitive gel pad that measures your sit bones and from that they will be able to suggest a good fit.
I did it for my road bike and 55 quid later the bike is transformed comfort-wise.

Thanks for that will contact Torque Bikes in Sudbury to see if they can help.

Specialized and Trek definitely supply them for their dealers, I would expect other brands to do the same if the make different width saddles.

I have never really had a saddle i got on with till i got a Fabric Cell Elite Radius, first saddle i have had that i can ride all day on that doest look like something off a postman bike! It uses air pockets rather than gel. Its also pretty reasonably priced.
