involuntary peeing while cycling

whitestar1

Hi all
So this is a question that is embarrassing but I need to find out. On occasions I will feel drips of pee come out. It's like when I am descending or low on the bar. Is this to do with my saddle?

I have a Cube with a Selle Italia X1 saddle that I am finding this condition on. I don't have recall doing this on my other bike with a Charge Spoon saddle (which I find very comfortable but wont change over as its my commute bike). I am looking into changing the X1 to a Specialize Romin, something with a large cut I am thinking.

Any ideas?

Why wouldn't you replace the X1 with a saddle that you know causes you no problems. . . perhaps a Charge Spoon?

Get your prostrate checked asap

And your prostate whilst you're at it (or your auto-correct)

But that was my thought: embarrassing as it might be (to you), go see a doc. It might be a welcome early indication of an unwelcome issue. It might also be nothing. But it's far better to have it checked.

yes get that checked too while you're at it :oops:

This, very much this. Oh, and buy another Spoon they're quite cheap.

I happen to have a grey Spoon / white rails doing nothing if you'd care to make me an offer. Comfy, but I found the stitching ate my shorts

I have almost the opposite problem. Some times I can feel a really good fart building up that I'd like to let out, but can't do it while I'm seated and the legs are pumping (unlike the sphincter). Is that just me?
