I'd probably use one of the few pairs of cycling shorts I have left for longer rides, but I find that well fitting (not tight in the crotch) street pants work well.
This is on Flites, with lowish (2" below) bars, and I use the hooks quite a bit. I really think that a good saddle position is 3/4 of saddle comfort, as well as 4/5 of arm and hand comfort (I don't wear gloves, either, even on the Motobecane Gr Record with cush-less cheap tape). -- Patrick Moore Albuquerque, NM For professional resumes, contact Patrick Moore, ACRW at resumespecialt...@gmail.com (505) 227-0523 --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
