    Every time I sit on a bike, my jeans tear.

    I kid you not. Hired myself a bike after years of wearing the same jeans, and after just 30 minutes I got a new ventilation hole.

      Don’t wear jeans when you bike?

      Even then, yeah saddles definitely do cause tears, but even with super cheap pants I’d take me months of regularly riding with a pair before a tear would happen. Having it happen that fast is extremely unusual.

        Yes, jeans were just the example because it is my favourite type of pants. But it is almost a universal experience for me. Unfortunate that I am not confident enough as a male to wear skirts or something.

        And yes, it is unusual. It’s just my experience and reason of why I don’t prefer a bike.

      What kind of jeans are you wearing? lol

      I’ve never heard of anyone having this issue and certainly never experienced it myself
