    Anyone found that a particular cream is better than others? I have been using Udderly Smooth but as I have a 160 odd mile ride on June 22nd looking for “marginal gains”.

    Savlon.  Much cheaper.  And even better as it comes in a tube that fits in your pocket. If it does get bad you can apply/re-apply.   You probably ride a lot given you’re doing 200kms  so I’m guessing that your saddle height and shorts are fine.  I think that most saddle sore are caused by rocking…

    Assos is always first on my list. Rapha is quite good too.

    I also had a sample of DZ Nuts Pro. But haven’t seen it available here in Ireland.

    It’s currently selling for just under €20 for 120ml on Planet X, which I think is a touch too much.

    So I’ll be ‘sticking’ to Assos (once my current Rapha one runs out).

    well as I have to explain it. Some creams are argued to be better than others, so I thought I would ask the collective, their experience of different creams in an attempt to decrease any chaffing I may get. Sorry I didn’t meant to be so cryptic in my first post.

    Huh, ‘marginal gains’ from a cream? Creams prevent skin chafing; to much is as bad as too little. Not to be facetious, but what kind of ‘gains’ do you expect a cream can provide?
