Only a man would understand......

[Manonabike]

I often wonder how other men do with placing their bits once on the saddle

My main bit has to rest on the left side of the saddle, I've tried on top of the saddle or even the right side but I can't get comfortable. When I put my cycling gear on I have to make sure that things will fall into place easily once on the saddle but if shorts/bibs are too tide and bits are in the wrong place then I have to stop and make the necessary changes which is most embarrassing

Is this an issue for you at all?

 

[Fab Foodie]

I lay mine along the top tube ....

 

[ianrauk]

Never thought about it to be honest.
Certainly never been a problem
I just get on the bike and go.

Have you thought about a different saddle?

 

[Davidc]

I've read that the jock strap was originally invented for cycling. Might be an option but probably not with bibs.

Prefer to lay mine on a flatter and softer surface.

Not a problem provided the saddle tension is correct. With a Brooks just get a spanner and fix sort it.

 

[on the road]

I never think about it.

 

[numbnuts]

Mine just get lost in the padding of the shorts

 

[oldfatfool]

No worries here, just leave it wrapped around my waist

 

[TVC]

If it's cold out, then after a couple of minutes it doesn't really matter.

 

[Silver Fox]

Tuck it in my sock.

 

[Melonfish]

stuff mine into the bottle cage, means i can't carry water mind...

 

[Mad Doug Biker]

The blood gets used elsewhere when I'm exercising, so it isn't an issue.

 

[Cubist]

I don't quite know how to put this, but your shorts should be tight enough to ensure everything is tucked upwards, out of harm's way.


Is it really time for the Polish Cycling Team to show us all how it's done?
