I just bought a second hand hybrid bike which is in good condition and not that old or used. So I went for it as I need one and the last I rode a bike was like 10 yrs ago. Rode it recently just for a short while my back side hurt a little but worringly my crotch area had a dull kind of pain as well and thats kinda freaked me out. There seems to be some study between cycling and males but not much.

I don't want to give up something like this before even starting. So thought i'll also invest in a new seat. Whats the story with saddles and male crotch area is it a potential hazard. and if not what kind of seat can I get that makes riding comfortable or what can do to achieve this?

Thanx.
