Champion  6962      Atlanta, Ga |  Subject: Assos Chamois CreamOk...this might sound like a rookie question but what has been your experience with this or any other chamois cream? Last year I rode over 4000 miles and am on target for this year as well. Have never used the stuff nor needed it. But recently I've been kinda rubbed raw, if you will. It's just on the left side, if that matters. So I tried some and it seemed to keep the pain at bay. So is it to prevent saddle sore, fix when you have one, both? |

Science Nerd 28760 Redwood City, California | Subject: RE: Assos Chamois Cream I love the Assos cream. It is a little tingly, so it doesn't always feel great if you are already raw. It has helped prevent sores more than anything else I've used. |

| Subject: RE: Assos Chamois Cream Both you can also get the chamois butt'r now that has menthol and witch hazel, which is the good stuff in assos. Also, try plain witch hazel on cotton swabs to the affected area post ride. |

Elite 3022 Preferably on my bike somewhere | Subject: RE: Assos Chamois Cream I use Chamois Buttr to prevent those injuries. I DEFINITELY notice when I forget - after 30 mins or so I'm in pain. Maybe I've trained those parts to be sissy... If I'd just HTFU, maybe I owuldn't need it. Perhaps its like Chap Stick? |

Probably not, but you can go the other route and use the diaper rash stuff as a chamois creme. Lots of folk around here ride with Boudreaux's Butt Paste. Other good alternatives that are cheaper than the Assos include Body Glide and Bag Balm. |
