I�ve been using Chamois Butter for years. Usually the smaller tube variations. It works well as long as I put a good coating on my impacted areas. I highly recommend this cream, especially in this larger container to help save some money. I will be looking for more of this soon!
Review by Kent
Enables a seamless connection with the pad in the bib shorts that causes less of a tendency for chafing and pad moving discomfort over the long haul and weeks of ride days. I usually apply this sparingly except during recovery I use more.
Review by Steve cullen
I use it daily and love the ease of use and the quick application. Spreads very nicely.

Been using ButtR for years, great stuff. The pump dispenser is great.
Review by DocH
If you use chamois cream you've probably tried Chamois Butt'r. I've used a variety of brands and Chamois Butt'r is one of the better options. Buying it in this 32 oz bottle lowers the cost per ounce and creates less packaging waste than the smaller jars or tubes. The pump needs to be primed quite a bit before it starts working, and the dispenser will inevitably develop an annoying but removable plug (for which Park Tools PR-1, plug removal tool is recommended). As other reviewers have mentioned, don't expect the pump to fully drain the bottle. It will stop working with the bottle still about one-quarter full. However, you can then cut the bottle open and scoop out the goo just like it was in a jar.

Four stars - Chamois Buttr is an old reliable that gets 4 stars for its combination of price and efficacy. There are better creams out there that last longer and are needed for the longest rides. I like the big size. There is a trick to getting the pump to work - before first use, drop the bottom of the pump into water and pump it until you get water coming out the nozzle. The. The pump can be inserted in the bottle and you should be all set.

First of all, I'm a fan of Paceline Chamois ButtR and have been for many years. I've tried various chamois creams through the years but settled on Chamois ButtR because it just, plain works. And it's made in USA.
However, what DIDN'T work (at least not for me) is the 32 oz. pump bottle. It just doesn't consistently deliver the cream when you push the nozzle down. Sometimes it comes out smoothly and puts the amount you want right on your fingertips. But it seems like most of the time it spits, spats, gives a tiny amount or nothing at all due to air locks in the pump.
Maybe I just got a lemon. And I'll buy Chamois ButtR again because it's a great product . But I will certainly
go back to the squeeze tube.

Although the ButtR is a great product, the pump bottle is not. The pump on mine took a soaking in hot water to begin to work, and then after a few rides the pump began to leak out of the side of the tube under the pump, which is inconvenient as the ButtR now comes out from two places and so does not all go where desired. I like to idea of using the pump to refill a used ButtR tube as I still have one of those around. All in all I'd agree with 5 stars for the product inside but 1 star for the pump bottle and pump delivery mechanism. Cheers!

This is my go to Chamois cream. Works great. The pump bottle is economical unless you factor in the pump straw is too short so you can�t get the last amount which is a lot, seems like at least 10-14%. Need to fix this to get 5 stars.

My wife and I have tried numerous similar products over thirty years of cycling and find this one to be the best combination of durability, effectiveness and economy. They all have gotten significantly more expensive in recent years, but if you can catch a sale at BTD on this giant economy size, it's not awful. I actually combine it with a bit of less expensive moisturizing lotion to make it last even longer.
Review by Fuelfool
Hard to believe that I raced for twenty years before discovering that I needed chamois lubrication! My wife and I have been using this stuff for many years since after trying numerous competing and often more expensive products. We have found this one to be the most durable of them all. It is certainly not cheap, but if you catch a decent sale and buy it in bulk, it's not horrible given the "return" it provides on your investment.

This is truly the best bang for your buck when it comes to chamios cream.

I've been using Chamois Butt'r for over 15 years and I've never had a saddle sore. This large bottle is great for refilling smaller bottles for use in various situations, particularly while touring.
Review by Ron
It's more a skin conditioner than a lubricant, but it works well as a lubricant too. I use it more during hot weather when I'm sweating a lot.
Review by MW
I have used this lube for many years in the tube form. This was my first time using the larger pump bottle. IT does take many pumps to get the lube primed in the pump before it starts to flow out.
Review by wakejunky
This is the best deal, since the pump applicator is capable of evacuating 45ths of its volume. By cutting open the container, the remaining 15th of its volume can be relocated to another useful container. Thus, proving a sense of extra value, rather factual or not. You decide.
Review by Russell
My wife and I have used Chamois Buttr for literally thousands of miles and weve never had an issue with saddle sores. The 32oz Pump Bottle is great for refilling the smaller tubes and make them even more economical.
Review by Pierre M
The pump bottle worked great until about 13 was left. At that time, the pump could not give me anymore. I could tell by the weight of the bottle that it was not empty but it felt that the pump was sucking air. I used a knife and cut the bottle from the top and sure enough, there is plenty left. Now I get to use the rest of the bottle without the pump. This product should be improved.
Review by Fuelfool
Have tried numerous products like this over thirty years of riding and racing. Some are cheap but dont hold up. Others hold up but are absurdly expensive. This stuff is good balance between performance and vale, especially if you catch a sale and buy in bulk, which I try to do each winter for the upcoming season.
Review by Mike
This is a great product that takes the edge off. The dispenser works great and is convenient.
