I recently got myself a selle smp extra based on recommendations of lots of people to relieve pressure on the taint. I am having mixed feelings with the seat. I went on a 40 km ride that has some short steep and technical climbs, the seat felt so good I didnt even feel it, totally forgot about it. It was definitely the most comfortable ride I have had. But there’s another ride I frequently do that is basically a long, continuous, non technical climb. You basically climb 800 meters in 8 kms (10% avg grade). The seat feels great at first but about 2/3 of the way up my junk starts getting numb. The weird part is that yesterday, some sections of my taint remained somewhat numb several hours after the ride was over. That had never happened to me with any other saddle, even those that were uncomfortable right from the start and numbed my junk faster.
Does anybody here have experience with this saddle that could give me some tips. Do you think I should give up on the saddle and try something else?
Cheers
