not sure about this product. apply to the chamois pad itself, not to your skin. be sure to rub it in to all the seams or anywhere else that might cause friction

sill loving the corvo 1.0
UPDATE: I've owned the Corvo 1.0 w/SRAM APEX for 3 months now. I upgraded the wheels to SRAM S27 AL and put on my old Fi'zi:k saddle, and I've logged around 800 miles since then. That's 3x more than I used to ride my Giant bike... this one is a lot more fun! Managed a 32mph jaunt on level ground (with a generous tailwind :) Happy to report I've had no problems with this bike since my last post, although my body is a bit worn out!

Corvo 1.0 w/ SRAM APEX
Lighting fast shipping, professionally packaged, nice bike. I've only been riding for a year, so I cannot compare this to other brands. I've also only logged a couple hundred miles on my Corvo 1.0 (APEX) since I got it, so I cannot attest to the long-term durability/reliability.
PROS:
-fast
-nice look and finish
-rides well (hard to explain, it's just a lot of fun to ride!)
CONS:
-wheel/tire combo is lackluster. I got a flat tire after a few miles, and the front wheel was found by a local mechanic to be defective. It was replaced by GiantNerd with no complaints (and free shipping). Now it rides great!
The bottom line is that I believe this bike is an EXCELLENT deal for the price. Just keep in mind that you may want to upgrade a few items rather quickly. Kudos to GiantNerd and Tomasso for this affordable road bike!
