do cycling shorts with padding really work?
I am going to get sterile unless I get something for that pressure from the seat. So do padded cycling shorts work or should I just get a softer seat?
Padded shorts help but if your butt is hurting (numb?) you need to try other saddles or try adjusting the tilt or height on your current one. Padding really isn't the issue. Finding the best saddle for your own behind is the goal. I have almost no padding on my Selle SLR but it fits me great. Price isn't what makes a good saddle. I have a couple of saddles that are more heavily padded that hurt me. If you never tried 4 to 6 other saddles you may not realize what a difference the shape makes.
If you haven't played with the tilt and height, experiment. One time I road a saddle for a month, it felt OK but I was getting a little numg after 20 or so miles. I tilted it down just a little and it made a world of difference.
