I'm testing out a new saddle (it's a Serfas "cosmos," but that doesn't really matter, I think).
Mostly I like the ride, but when I ride my right leg and butt gets a little stressed. Specifically,
some chaffing, some odd muscle soreness, and the feeling that I'm resting uncomfortably more on my
right sit bone than on my left.
It feels as though the saddle is lopsided.
It isn't, of course--*I* am.
Since probably not may people are perfectly symmetrical, I ask: do others have strategies to deal
with this?
For what it's worth: I ride a road bike. And yes, I've been tinkering with the seat position.
Ironically the seat this replaces was a very basic one--just a little padding over a plastic
shell--but it was perfect for me. (It failed.)
Thanks!
