This Cannondale Mtn bike is KILLING me!
I've been riding this full-suspension Cannondale Rush 3z mountain bike for the past 8-months and cannot get comfortable on it. During every ride I experience serious pain. Numbing of certain body parts, pain & numbing of both wrists, neck pain, sit bones are sore...
I came across the ISM saddles online while researching the numbness issues and found them at Tri-Sports.com, which happens to be right here in Tucson. The staff was very nice, did a $40 re-fit of me on my bike. I rented two saddles to try (and now have a $40 saddle credit there which I will never use).
Nothing worked. Until...
I've been riding with J2 for about a month. Me on my Cannondale Rush 3Z (complaining about the pains) and Jeff zipping along on this thing called a "Recumbent Trike".
Then I rode his recumbent for the first time, 7 miles and no pain.
Um, let me try that again... 24 miles almost no pain...
Hey, there might be something to this!
