Innie / Outie Concept

John Cobb of Cobb Cycles maintains that his internal research suggests that the length of a woman’s labia minora is a major contributing factor to saddle comfort.  According to Cobb, women with longer labia minora, whom he describes as “outies,” tend to have more pronounced and exposed soft tissues and thus often prefer saddles with cutouts and wider noses.  Alternatively, Cobb suggests women who are “innies” have less exposed sensitive tissues and thus don’t necessarily require a cutout and often prefer a narrower nose (Arthurs-Brennan, 2016).
