I've been using the Assos chamois cream for probably 18 months or
more. Now I pretty much always use it. For me it increased comfort
well beyond the $20 it costs.
Chamois cream = goodbye saddle soreness.
(Feels a bit wierd the first few times you use it though)

A number of people are annoyed with you because you won't take 20 seconds
and fix your computer's clock. It's a trivial task.

Heya mm
My experiences with Chamois Crèmes have mostly been good, and with the
more expensive ones, completely positive.
Eddie Merckx was a *big* fan of (Belgian, of course) Godiva Chamois
Crèmes.
Almost all of of the Chamois Crème Brûlées I've had have been
delicious... but, here's a tip: take care to pick out the dingleberries
with a fish-knife before tucking into a Chamois Crème at a cheaper
restaurant. Bite down on something like that, and it's a night of good
food utterly ruined.
And look out for stray pubes, too.

Of course, Chamois Crème in italiano is "Camoscio Crema."
Like the difference between black truffles and white truffles, I guess.
But, furthermore...
[mind weak, body strong, ummm I mean, mind strong, body weak... must...
not... mention... Paola Pezzo... in reference to... edible Chamois Crème...]
<fn's mind> says "D'oh!></fn's mind>
--> "fn's mind" has exited the newsgroup
Or something.

listen, I'm having fun, alright? Ok, ok, go on, burst my bubble...)

About $5 at most chemists.
Got me through a 4200Km ride without any saddle sores.
Did need to reapply once or twice a day, riding about 200Km per day.
Washes out of knicks easily because it is non-greasy.

Fonzie may have (literally) jumped the shark in episode #576 (or
whatever), but I'm sure that neither he nor Richie would have eaten
chamois creme instead of hamburgers at the Peach Pit... oops, sorry that
was a Beverley Hills 90210 a long time ago, in a Galaga far, far away...
(I liked the first series, where Fonzie was this really scary guy, not
some sort of figure of fun for the middle-class Cunninghams....)

Chamois Crème...
and.. .
oops, let's just stop right there.

And you're still as anal as ever. Perhaps you would like to name the
"number of people" apart from yourself.
I await your erudite response.

You don't know from erudite. You're just a top-posting shithead who likes
to inconvenience others. Why have you come into this thread two weeks after

No not neccessarily leather. I was thinking of the standard synthetic chamois in standard knicks.Meeba said:
Bought some Assos and it seems to help with comfort but its early days yet. Its unisex so should be fine for you. It just gets rubbed on the potentially sore bits rather than all over the chamois pad although thats where it'll eventually wind up.
