Padded Y-Fronts

Hi

I am using padded cycling shorts and find them to be fantastic for
comfort, and the fact that they are breathable makes a big difference.

However, as I am more used to Y-fronts rather than boxer type underpants
I wondered if there are any good padded Y-front style short-liners ?

Any advice gratefully received

Regards

Not sure if I've understood quite right, but do be aware that cycle
shorts can be (and often are) used with no underpants at all. Fewer
things to chafe this way.

Use skin tight lycra shorts with chamois inserts and no underwear.

Best to have no padding, it cuts of the blood supply.

That's right. Have no padding in pants or shorts, get a solid tyre and
one of these saddles:-

For pansies. You should bolt your pelvis directly to the frame. Use Ti
bolts and you might save a gramme or two as well!

That is what I have got now but I find it a bit uncomfortable as you can
"tuck your bits in" with Y-fronts, where-as with the cycle shorts (Lusso
8 panel, coolmax with insert) your bits are just kind of sitting there.

If you see what I mean.

Although a picture speaks a thousand words. . . maybe not in this case.

Wiggle have these

Yes we do thanks. Everyone is different, ordinary, good quality shorts work
for me.
