G'day mate, don't have same problem though used to chafe with good nicks. now just where "jockey" undies and normal shorts. can go 200k's a day and no discomfort. I do think people don't look closley at what they where while riding. stay away from any seams at all if possible and don't have clothes to tight.kopride said:I rode 175 miles this weekend as part of a charity ride. I need to wear a jock due to prior bouts of epiditimitis, but then I got extreme chaffing from the rear straps on a long ride. I am feeling it today. For me, it is choose your pain. I have used Chamois butter, and a zinc oxide based stick. The inner cotton underwear type skins don't have enough support, and from past history I know that bareback is no real option, because then I am dealing with testicular pain leading to epiditimitis.
The jock is fine for rides under 50 miles, but after that the chaffing is debilitating
Suggestions?
