Incontinence and alternative bike seat (cont'd)

Thanks for all the useful comments.

When I first started riding again after the op, I used a sort of condom-like device over my penis with a metre-long tube down my pant leg. Felt like in an old-style railway carriage dropping toilet contents along the rail line. Gave that up pretty quick. Still, pads have limitations too.

I am trying a Spiderflex saddle which is like two oval donuts for the sit-bones. Is quite stable, but not comfortable for me. Leaning forward on my road bike it is like resting with a steel bar under my upper thighs. With a very upright position it might work, but not for now.

My next trial is a normal type seat with a very large and wide cutout on top. Unfortunately I haven't yet been able to locate a sports medicine doctor who might know something about the issues.
Thanks again
Adrian
