I bought some Baleaf biking shorts with the expectation that it would reduce glut pain. It did not help. ?

Have someone who knows something about riding position
critique your stem and saddle positions. Nothing wrong with
good cycling shorts, which are a good thing, but they can't
cover poor setup.

I will check my bike shop.

I use a wide gel seat.

Maybe I need a more narrow one?


See if http://bicyclinglife.com/PracticalCycling/Sore.htm helps.

Thanks Frank.

I have found that periodically "walking" my bike helps too.

I forgot to mention that I have a mountain bike.

The old fashion unsuspended MTB's were pretty awful since your position is pretty upright and most of the weight goes on your bottom. But the suspension of the later models greatly takes the stress off.
