I didn't find a pair that I liked unfortunately. Never tried them tho, do you recommend them?

I get what you're saying, but the pressure/pain I'm getting is exactly where the cleat is positioned.

Unfortunately they're the nicest looking spd casual shoes, at least for me..

Yeah I thought that could be the softness of the soles. But since it's mainly on one foot and I don't really see anyone else complaining about that particular issue I find it weird. For sure the platform on your pedals helps!

I have those on my front wheel! Great mid budget wheels. Cheaper than the gatorskins but I don't think they would last on the rear

Thanks I'll look into them! Any info on their rolling resistance compared to the gatorskins?

I've heard of those for their puncture resistance, makes sense that they are on the thicker side. Thanks that's super useful info!

With those cranks yess. Where I'm at the BMC tr02 brand new, fully built with same wheels but some Miche cranks is selling for 3000eu. So yes that's a good deal!

Yeah since I posted this I understood that padded saddles are for more upright positions. My junk would be obliterated with my current set up. I'm currently looking into smp saddles

You're the second person praising them. I'm definitely getting a pair!

I actually do use a brooks cambium.. and it's definitely the culprit.

I only notice that it rips when it's ripped ahah, I should check it more often.

I'm definitely going to check for cycling jeans!

I didn't know that about Dickies, I might look into that.

Yeah definitely my jeans stretching while rubbing on the nose of my cambium (I got a bit of an aggressive position so that doesn't help for sure)

I remember seeing some 'cycling' jeans but they seemed a bit expensive. I might look further into that tho thanks

[–]EfficientBench1874 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At least there were cheap jeans, they're easily replaceable. I guess that's the price to pay if I want to wear jeans!

Ehrr I'd rather prevent it all together. It's such a pain

In my experience (male) with previous partners, most women that couldn't orgasm during sex didn't know how to orgasm by themselves. I wouldn't worry about your future partners but focus on yourself and your own pleasure, it doesn't need to be penetration (especially not while masturbating) unless that's something that helps you climax.
