I have a Fabric on my mountain bike, but as I spend a lot of time out of the saddle I never actually associated it with comfort. But, when I think about it, I do feel more comfortable on rides like the Health Valley trail when I am on the saddle for periods of time. But then the whole trail from my front door and back is only 17km, so barely 45 min ride. I may just give it a try on my road bike see how that goes. I know there is a big difference being on my trainer compared to on the road (trail) so maybe the Bontrager will be just fine on the road. I also make sure my chamois is in good condition, although I am a cheap bugger, so dont always buy the better quality bibs and just tough it out. May have to invest in at least 1 good quality pair.
