ummmm..... just me? Im sure the majority of riders use them, most likely deciding to get a pair after their first outing without them0

Padded undershorts are the future!!! Don't want to be cocky but would estimate that every 3rd rider who likes comfort would wear them.What could have been (Video)
I'll choose not put too much stake into someone's opinion who is admittingly terrible though0 -

Id say its probably even more than that who do. I can't imagine riding without mine now.0 -
I suffer from a disturbing lack of feeling in my gentleman's area if I cycle for any length of time without them0

Agreed. Oh so much. Three days straight on a road bike without was more than enough to convert me.Rock Lobster 853, Trek 1200 and a very old, tired and loved Apollo Javelin.0 -
Absolutely wear them. Only when trail riding though, don't bother for the commute.0

Indeed, must protect my delicate bum0

No but im going to get some.
Show me the lycra0 -
Can't cycle without padded shorts. Baggy shorts with inner lycra shorts are ideal.0

Yep it keeps your gentlemens vegetables in good order.
Just bought some Altura ProGel undershorts to replace a threadbare pair of De Marchi under shorts AAAAAHHHHH BlissFig rolls: proof that god loves cyclists and that she wants us to do another lap0 -
Don't like them myself, I stopped wearing nappies years ago and didn't like going back. But to be fair I have a cast iron a**e from long distance motorbiking so even with my skinny saddle I never find it at all uncomfortable.Uncompromising extremist0

I bought a pair not long after I started riding. Also bought a pair of padded boxers in the Aldi. Wore both at once on one ride but not sure if that was a bit much.
Always wear something over the top too. No one needs to see my spandexed backside.0 -
That's a pretty big consensus that they are useful. Haven't noticed to much pain the butt while riding yet, but we shall see. Until then I will just go with my squishy butt.'09 Rocky Mountain Fusion0
