BikerooNarrow Nose Road Bike Saddle - Chafe Rub Reduction for Comfort, Flexibility for Street Riding Commuting Stationary Bicycle Exercise - 7" W x 10" L

Pretty comfortable for having minimal padding. I ride occasionally so this has kept me from being sore after riding.

I am a fitness rider and cycling enthusiast and ride a “flat bar roadie”. All I expect from a from a saddle is that it's at least bearable for daily 60 to 90 minute fast paced rides. Over the last 10 years I've tried at least 7 or 8 different performance saddles from some of the big name builders and haven't been able to find one that I can put up with for more than 30 minutes or so without whining and fighting the little voice that keeps telling me "you've had enough". I quit looking for the "perfect fit" some years ago and have settled for moderately comfortable. My most recent "favorite" was good for 45 to 60 minutes but was borderline too narrow for my Sitz Bones width. In case you're wondering, I have a pretty high tolerance for discomfort and pain but a poor fitting saddle can turn will power into won't power so I've been on continual lookout for a solution. I saw the Bikeroo while looking for other gear and the comfort claim got my attention. AS I said, I quit looking for perfect........Bikeroo makes some pretty lofty claims about comfort so I thought what the heck........I'll give it a try. While this saddle is still fairly new to me, so far I am very happy I took a chance and I almost didn't because it was so inexpensive (compared to the many other 'high end" saddles from well known manufacturers I tried before). Here are some of my observations/experiences.Firstly, it a firm seat as it should be for a performance saddle. I find that this saddle provides a great deal of flexibility for "moving around" when trying to find a comfortable position. I particularly appreciate the length of the seat pad - it allows me to move fore and aft a bit which changes my body angle and helps relieve pressure on my hands and arms and resulting numbness in the fingers ( I tend to ride "stiff arm" with too much weight on my hands - probably could use an stem riser but don’t really want the tradeoffs that creates ). It's an inch wider than my "old saddle” which provides a more comfortable fit for my sitz bones and gives me room to adjust position slightly from side to side which seems to be just enough room to find a comfortable spot again if I start to fatigue. It has sufficient clearance at the waist so it doesn't interfere with my leg movement at high cadence levels, For those of you who totally understand what I'm describing here and are searching for a more comfortable saddle like I was, check out the dimensions and I recommend you give it a try if it seems to "measure up". For those readers who aren't as familiar with the elements that make for a correct (and comfortable) bike fit, I recommend you check out the plentiful material on the topic on the web or find yourself a really good bike shop with a knowledgeable tech/owner who can make sure you don't get turned off to this wonderful sport because of an ill fitting bike or equipment that is not sized to your body and riding needs. By the way, I'd give it a 5th (and a 6th) star if it had an inflatable bladder (like my Harley) so I could change the firmness setting as I ride. . I’ll provide additional updates as I get more time in this saddle. Happy riding!

Good product, comfortable. I put it on both a street and mountain bike.

This is a great seat. I bought it to replace a broken seat on my Kaiser stationary bike and it has been a massive improvement on the stock seat.

The seat itself is not the most comfortable but not too bad either. Definitely better than the seat that was already installed on my Schwinn which I bought 5-10 years ago, but also less comfortable than the other seat I bought after finding out that this seat does not provide the comfort I was looking for. To be fair, I did buy a wider seat. For this product, I was fine at the beginning but 30-60min into my bike ride I start to catch myself in uncomfortable positions and start standing more often and changing my sitting posture more often.Now, as for packaging it was very poor and probably is the reason I got very annoyed. First of all, the bad was not stapled correctly, so now if I want to return the item, the seller might try to blame the rapture in the bag on me. Second of all, the package was missing items that the product description mentioned will be included. For example, "video mounting instructions" and "an-info packed e-book" where both missing. Initially, I was not sure how the video would be delivered in the package, but imagined a link to the video would be put on a piece of paper or something. I was wrong; nothing was provided in that regard. In addition, what seemed like a "mounting instruction packet/paper" based on one of the pictures in the product description was also missing. As a result, I spent 6X as long as what I should on installing a bike seat. I had never changed a bike seat before, so I was in need of some instructions and that was the reason why I bought this specific seat over others; because it had instructions, or so I thought. But I ended up spending more time than I should on installing the seat. Not good for the business.I am returning this product for two reasons, (a) I found a better seat for me, and (b) lack of professionalism when doing business with end customer represented in poor packaging and missing items, which translated to unnecessary frustration and a lot of time lost on my end.

Heavy but comfortable
