is that just as good then smokey??

IMO it is. I used to buy Assos Chamois Creme at about a tenner a pop, then someone told me about using Vaseline, I gave it a go and I've never looked back. We've always got some in the house, (stop it!), so we never run out and IMHO it simply works, happy days

Vaz it is then - just getting the odd bit of chaffing down there after 20 or so miles

I don't agree that vaseline is as effective and (I'd guess) it's very messy.

If you want proper chamois cream then I've used the Assos stuff and Udderly Smooth. Been using the Udderly Smooth for a couple of years now and its pretty good. It's really not very expensive either given how long a tub lasts (about 6 months for me).

Vaseline or Sudocreme. (Seeing as I have a very small person running around the house, we seem to have Sudocreme in abundance)

I use the Assos stuff as well for rides over 50 miles, I think it is great and makes a big difference. It is expensive for a pot but it lasts for ages.
