Familiarization of the Seat Bones |
|
Pain at the seat bones is normal at the beginning of the season or when a new saddle form is used. Familiarization with a new saddle can take app. 5 to 6 rides
At least two days of rest should be scheduled between the initial rides to give the already sensitive muscles and tendons time to react.
SQlab lists the hardness and the padding material on the saddle. To that extent, we developed a measurement unit, SQ Shore, which includes a combination of cover and padding materials.
Attention!
The familiarization process starts anew after a break in of app. 2 weeks!
Rule:
A new saddle form is in most cases uncomfortable after a single test ride.
