Finisher for wide seat bones :)
- Reen 9 March 2026
These are my finest cycling shorts so far, with my sit bones 15.5cm apart. With many other trousers, I sit right on the thin outer edge of the chamois. It's a thick chamois, but it is nevertheless comfortable.
Pros & Cons
And still a fine fit
Chamois wide enough for 15 cm seat bone distance
Thick chamois
