Boardman saddle

memphis32

Hi there, not sure if this is the right forum for this, but here goes...

I've had a Boardman Team HT for a couple of weeks, and I'm getting pain in my backside (the coccyx I think) after rides.
I'm not sure whether it's just that I haven't been on a bike for several months, whether it's that the saddle is positionned wrong (though it's roughly the same as on my previous bike), or whether it's that the boardman saddle has an odd shape - it goes out at the back, rather than in.
Any suggestions would be welcome!

I'd look at free stuff first. Change the angle and see if that helps, you don't say if you wear padded shorts or not- they make a huge difference if you dont....

I've got a Boardman Team and have no problems with the saddle but saying that I do have quite a bit of my own padding.

As you ride, your touche will become accustomed to the saddle
I found this after being off the bike for 3 months when I broke my leg last year, the first few rides were uncomfortable.

I have a boardman and i'm looking into a new saddle. Done a fair few miles on it now and it hurts everytime i'm out. Looks to be the wrong shape.

It isnt a great saddle to be honest, nice looking etc but yeah I prefered my SDG Bel Air.
