Depends on what underwear you wear. I find wool boxers to be great under MUSA shorts and eschew chamois unless I'm on an as yet unbroken in leather saddle. The thin merino shorts from RBW are excellent when you want something light. I have a couple of pairs of these.

I've had great service from UK Army surplus boxers: Undyed wool, and I had to use a safety pin to keep the fly closed while riding. YMMV http://www.northdoorway.com/ProductInfo.aspx?id=3402373 In non wool, these Champion "Active Fit" briefs (got mine for less at Costco) are surprisingly good. http://www.boxerbriefs.com/eshop/10browse.asp?category=Champion I agree on the Bag Balm or other friction reducer on rides over about 10 miles. ________________________________ From: GeorgeS <chobur...@gmail.com> To: RBW Owners Bunch <rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com> Sent: Tuesday, June 23, 2009 9:02:57 PM Subject: [RBW] Re: another plug for MUSA That said, these thingsare designed for use with underwear. If I'm going to be on a bike for more than an hour, I don't want underwear. I want chamoi (sp?) or it's new-age equivalent and a load of goop. Nothing worse than a wad of underwear in the wrong place and you've still got 40 miles to go. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
