Airhawk, Alaska Butt Pad or Beads...?

I take it you are not riding the Sporti?

Hahahaaa...   No. Way.  I want to be able to walk again after the ride.   

Seriously though, the Sporti is good for a few miles with me on it, maybe even an all day ride but I could not ride it that many miles.

I will be bringing the West Coast V11 Jackal back to Maine... 

Best,
Rob

Just goes to show that all bums are different. For me the Sport is comfortable, day in, day out. But it did teach me to pack smaller & lighter than I used to. Good luck and have an absolute ball.

Well, I have not tried beads, but  on my Breva 750, I did borrow an airhawk, and It did not work for me, I felt like I was not completely in touch with the bike.
I have tried Sheepskin, but if it gets soaked while touring, it takes ages to dry out.
So I use the smallest of the ButtBuffer pads.
Sticks well to the saddle, only 1 cm high, and it dries out fast, after a thunderstorm

I felt like I was not completely in touch with the bike.

I wonder if there was too much air in it? Mine only needs a breath
