Default saddle fit

Ok, so I've lately my ass got smaller (yippee) but now it feels like my saddle doesn't fit. I slide all over on it, and feel like I'm slipping off at times. It's a touring women's saddle with a cut out. Anyone have any similar problems? Any way to fix without getting a new seat? thanks

Sounds like it is time to invest in a new saddle. Try to buy one with kevlar at least at the back of the saddle as this will prevent your butt from going anywhere.

This may sound strange, but before you invest in another saddle, make sure you have the height adjusted correctly or that it isn't loose. Aside from that, get decent cycling shorts, one that are really well padded - and don't wear ANY underwear at all!
