Bikeroo Narrow Nose Road Bike Saddle - Chafe Rub Reduction for Comfort, Flexibility for Street Riding Commuting Stationary Bike Exercise

I put this on my new fixie bike that came with a very basic hard saddle. Though I was getting used to the original seat, but I just wanted a seat that was a bit more comfortable. I researched and shopped around a lot and decided on this one. It was super easy to put on - I took off their post clamp and used the one that came with the bike. The seat comes with a nice little multi bike tool kit - which is cool. So I just quickly undid the two big side bolts and removed their mounting system and slid the bottom seat rails into the mount already on the bike - tightened it up - took a little ride, loosened it up and readjusted the angle and moved it a little more forward. It was then perfect. And - I really like it. It's perfect. Comfortable without feeling like grandma's overstuffed chair cushion. I like the shape and the width. It is just a little bit wider than the original seat - in a good way. It looks to be very well made. And it also comes with a little seat cover in a plastic bag. I don't know if I will ever use it - but it is a nice touch. I have seen other reviews that said it isn't as comfortable as expected. I disagree. I mean - you don't wanna sit on a pillow. It gives you support with some nice give in the padding. I am quite happy with this purchase and I think the price is very reasonable for such a well designed seat. Packaging was nice and you can just tell that the company is thoughtful and is really trying to relate well to their customers.

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!

Bought this to replace the original seat for Giant ATX. Very happy for the choice. SIZE: This seat is not as bulky as others in the market (based on the same price range). It’s slightly shorter than the original Giant ATX seat but wider and thicker, as in the picture. COMFORT: On scale of 1 to 10. I would give my original seat a 3, that’s is how uncomfortable it is. As for this Bikeroo, a 8. I have try bike seat that is more comfortable than this, that deserve a 10, however those seat are either too bulky or too pricy. So for the price I pay, I am very happy with the comfort level it provided. This seat provide the optimum level of comfort, size, design and affordability combine. QUALITY: Built and material used is pretty decent. Durability is yet to be determined since I only use it for a month. INSTALLATION: Pretty standard for bike seat. Take less than 5 minutes to replace and adjust.

Long-term review: Switching to a replacement bicycle after my bicycle of 21 years was stolen, I developed an inflamed lymph node that made sitting on the saddle feel like sitting on a pea. After trying two other seats with no improvement, I tried this saddle. Marketed as the "most comfortable bike seat", I found this to be the _least_ comfortable bicycle seat I've ever used. Two weeks later, after some adjustments and breaking it in, or perhaps just getting used to it, I found it tolerable. The irritated lymph node problem subsided and hasn't returned. 1.5 years and ~3000 miles later, the seat is excessively worn. The wear is from cycling and not from leaning the bicycle against walls, dropping it on the ground, or other abuse. I expect a non-abused saddle to last significantly longer, let alone one at this price point. I would award this saddle four stars because, even though significantly overpriced, it solved the pressure point problem I was experiencing, and is still cheaper than the alternative of doctor's appointments to diagnose/treat the problem. Deducting one star due to accelerated, premature wear. Update 2018-11-04: The saddle only lasted another month. Two days ago when lifting the rear of the bicycle by the seat, the rail popped off the saddle body. I cannot reinsert the rail, and likely if I could, the saddle body has fatigued enough that it will just pop out again the next time I maneuver the rear of the bicycle by the seat. See attached photos. I will not be buying this item again.

To start off I don't think there is any such thing as a comfortable bike seat. The phrase itself is an oxymoron. But I bought this seat because I wanted to get back into competing and wanted something a bit more racy looking than the "fat seat" I had on my touring bike. That being said I found this seat even less uncomfortable than my "fat seat". I felt it helped me concentrate more on performing and less on trying to find a comfortable position, hence I performed beyond expectations during my first race. I have also found my training rides much more enjoyable and quite look forward to them now. Note I tossed the extra hardware that came with the seat (a mounting clamp) and used the existing on my bike which was better quality. Overall very pleased. Also note I am 68 yrs old, so level of comfort is important.

Tras meses de uso ha resistido bien, y sin duda es el mejor sillín que he tenido. Aún así, no hace magia, y sigue doliendo el c u l o en salidas largas. Cuestión de fisonomía, supongo.

Comodissima. Fa il suo dovere. Le ho montate su tutte le mie mtb. Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo

Besitze ein Trekking-Rad und bin jetzt einige Male mit dem neuen Sattel gefahren. Habe den Sattel zusammen mit der Stütze "XLC Fahrrad Federsattelstütze SP-S05 31,6 mm" gekauft. Strecken ca. 20 - 50 km. Scheint perfekt für mich zu sein (80kg). Bin super zufrieden, kein Druckschmerz. Und sieht richtig gut aus.

Vélo de route ! Mais toujours aussi pénible !! Mais suis-je très sensible !!!!!6
