Bike saddle really uncomfortable

Post by mackat » February 18, 2020, 9:26 am

I bought a bike recently and the saddle is rock hard. Anyone know where I could get this saddle redone or buy a more comfortable one?

You can get one of these (which are also sold at the bike shop at the 5-way intersection near Central Plaza - ask for Peter) :

p.s. your arse will adapt (toughen up), if you are new to riding. :D

I was in DIY in Central Plaza last week and noticed that they have a bicycle seat cover that is filled with gel to soften the ride. You might try that before you spend a ton on a new seat. You can probably find them on Lazada.co.th as well.
Colossians 2:8-10...See to it that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deception, which are based on human tradition and the spiritual forces of the world rather than on Christ. For in HIM dwells all the fullness of the GODHEAD bodily; and you are complete in HIM, who is the head of all principality and power.
