COMFORT BICYCLE SEATS

Amazon.com Widgets

All the bicycle seats I list here are of the comfort type. Some of them will be borderline racer style. From Terry Bicycles: "foam fatigue, a common affliction of recreational saddles that have too much padding and cause weight to be spread out across soft tissue areas after about an hour or so of riding your bicycle. The key to longer riding is to have your sit bones supporting your weight, not your soft tissues". "Sit bones supporting your weight" - My opinion is that this fact about the sit bones is critical to buying a comfortable bicycle seat.

Also, i want to mention that i like to include items on my website(s) for which i receive no sales commission; So, this website is a mixture of non-paying and paying items.

“The Nexride Saddle is the first noseless bike saddle designed specifically for the sport cyclist. Unlike other noseless saddles, the lightweight Nexride Saddle contains patent-pending technology that allows it to flex with your natural motion, providing unparalleled performance, protection, and comfort. The Nexride saddle is a padded "bench" that supports cyclists under their sit bones (ischia tuberosities, if you must), rather than their very sensitive perineal areas. The sit bones were engineered by nature to support your body weight. Your perineum, to put it delicately, was not. However, an ordinary bench makes a lousy bike seat. Fortunately, the Nexride Saddle is no ordinary bench. A key Nexride patent-pending innovation allows the Nexride noseless saddle to pivot 15 degrees in either direction to accommodate the natural motion of your femur and pelvis as you pedal. The combination of a robust bench and a pivoting base offers both safe and secure support of your pelvis and unimpeded pedaling for the sport cyclist.”

However, the are plenty of other people who like the seat and it has worked well for them. Please click on the picture at the right to buy from Amazon.com as your purchase helps to support this site at no extra cost to you. Thanks, ~gg

“A truly revolutionary design, the Easyseat II has a simple thumb-wheel placed in the center of the two seat pads allowing for simultaneous, uncomplicated and accurate width adjustments of the seat pads for custom fitting. The base, with longer rails, is made of nylon and glass and is smaller and lighter than its predecessor, the Original Easyseat. To add to the stability of the ride the seat pads are a bit wider; in addition to having elastomers or rubber plugs in each pad to keep the seat pad firm against your leg on each down-stroke. This seat has more padding when compared to the Original Easyseat and the tips are more supple for comfort in various riding positions. NOTE: The best position for the seat is sitting upright with handle bars positioned high. Some bikes may require a 7/8″ diameter seat clamp (available off this website) for installation. Stress tested up to 300 lbs.”

“At last, the invention of a comfortable bicycle saddle and pain free riding! Necessity is indeed the Mother of Invention. During a cross-state ride, I became increasing uncomfortable with my seat. Although the saddle I was riding was touted as one of the best, by day four,I simply could no longer stand it. I was so sore, my bottom hurt so much, that I actually ended up walking the whole day, pushing my bike. Painfully, I finished the ride, and with every mile became ever more determined to build a better saddle. Several years and nearly 50 prototypes later, the Carbon Comfort Saddle was born. ~Jeri Rutherford, Developer and Managing Partner”

SELLE SMP AVANT SADDLE I have owned one of these seats (the Avant model) and later sold it on eBay. My opinion of this seat is that it is very well made and very beautiful. The guy i sold my Avant to on eBay says it is one of the most comfortable seats you can use. In my opinion, the seat is designed for "sit bone" placement. It was not at all comfortable to me, but keep in mind i did not use the seat long enough to even break it in. The seat is good quality, but not comfortable "out of the box". SMP's comfort line includes two models: The "Avant" and the "Plus". Please keep in mind that these seats are not very big and not lots of padding (it's all relative!). Please click on the picture at the right to buy from Amazon.com as your purchase helps to support this site at no extra cost to you. Thanks, ~gg

“The Avant model uses a wider body than the other SMP4BIKE models. The extremely comfortable padding guarantees maximum comfort. It is covered in real leather in the black versions and Lorica microfiber in the colored versions. AVANT is slightly shorter and is equipped with a rather wide body. It is an excellent seat for all those who want comfort. The patented features by Selle SMP, such as the completely free central channel, the original eagle-beak nose and the raised rear give these models an interesting aerodynamic touch. It is also recommended for trekking bicycles. Suited for people with medium-wide and wide pelvises, also indicated for women cyclists. The patented features by Selle SMP, such as the completely free central channel, the original eagle-beak nose and the raised rear give these models an interesting aerodynamic touch. It is also recommended for trekking bicycles. Suited for people with medium-wide and wide pelvises.”

SELLE SMP PLUS SADDLE I have not bought this saddle yet, it is hard for me to tell the difference between this model and the "Avant" model. The "Plus" model seems to be a little more padded and a little wider than the "Avant" model. "Plus" model weighs: 360grams, size: 279x159mm. "Avant" model weighs: 335grams, size: 269x154. Seems like micro differences to me.

“The Selle SMP Strike Plus saddle is designed from extensive studies conducted which analyzed the different positions assumed by a cyclist in the various phases of a ride and the constant interaction between the body and the saddle. Based on these findings, Selle SMP designed the STRIKE saddle which prevents the cyclist's sensitive areas from getting squashed and increases the blood flow to the leg muscles. Selle SMP makes the saddle in Italy. The central channel of the saddle varies in width to contour the body and allow continuous circulation of blood flow. The front section of the saddle with its beak-shaped design offers excellent support when pedaling hard and prevents your sensitive area from getting squashed in the process. The design of the outer mid-section is shaped to follow your thigh muscles to maximize blood circulation and pedaling power. The overall weight of the rider is distributed throughout the saddle to offer comfort without sacrificing performance. This allows you to exert more power while in the saddle and ride longer more comfortably. The Selle SMP Strike Plus saddle keeps the same design of the patented STRIKE saddle but with a wider platform and increased padding that provides more comfort when riding. FEATURES - Weight: 330 grams Dimesions: 279 x 159 mm Cover: Nap leather. Padding: Foamed elastomer. Casing: Nylon 12 charged with carbon fibre. Frame: AISI 304 tubular steel rails. Plus uses the same body as the Pro model, the much thicker padding guarantees maximum comfort. It is covered in real leather in the black versions and Lorica microfiber in the colored versions. PLUS is generously padded, also recommended for trekking bicycles. The patented features by Selle SMP, such as the completely free central channel, the original eagle-beak nose and the raised rear give these models an interesting aerodynamic touch. It is also recommended for trekking bicycles. Suited for people with medium-wide and wide pelvises.”

THE MANTA BICYCLE SADDLE When i first saw this seat i thought maybe it was a joke. But upon further research it seems to be the real deal. This seat is currently being developed in Europe (i think England). But, keep in mind that the picture on the right is a general idea of the seat. They may have modified it to be a little shorter in the nose, i am not sure. Click HERE to watch a very short video on how the saddle works.

“Manta's revolution in bicycle saddle design changes the whole feel of being seated on a bicycle. Compared to conventional saddles and alternatives the manta saddle is very different. No compromise re-engineering; it is more than a saddle without a nose. The manta saddle has a significantly increased support area . . . And has removed the nose by articulating the support area, allowing it to move as one with a larger proportion of a rider's supportable area than any other saddle - i.e. including firm parts of the legs, not just the ischial, sit bones. The manta saddle gives a pressure pattern with the mass distributed over a greater area, fewer high spots and significantly lower peak pressures. Many other alternative saddles have gone the route of simply removing the nose, a good thing in itself except this also reduces the support area significantly - which is where our design is very different. NEWS! Due to feedback from testing in the wild and with no compromise to the design, Manta has reduced the size of the front support area, this has actually improved the feel and overall day-to-today usability, gives a nice 'planted' feel and makes initial setup easier.”

SERFAS They seem to have many different styles of "Comfort Saddles". I have been using these saddles and have been having very good results. This company really does have a very large selection of comfort type bicycle seats for both men and women. You should be able to find something that works for you here. If you like the conventional look in a bike saddle, then this is the place to shop.

“Whatever the destination, cyclists are seeking the ultimate ride, and Serfas is making sure they find it. Our 15-year commitment to quality, performance, and customer service is reflected in our innovative products, and this year's next generation of rider-tested, rider-approved Serfas designs gives us a whole lot to get excited about.

CLOUD 9 SEATS This saddle incorporates the features designed into a farm tractor seat to provide comfort in bicycle riding. Please note the "Contour Seat" (the saddle pictured on the right) is a full 16" wide, the widest seat available. This company has other comfort seats which are of a more conventional design. I am featuring their "Contour Seat" model here.

“The comfort of any bicycle seat is related to its size not its softness. Don't be taken in or confused by gimmicks such as foam padding or gel inserts. Did you ever wonder why a farmer can sit in a hard, stamped metal seat all day while he plows his fields? It's because the weight of his body is distributed over the large area of the seat. No padding at all! This simple and obvious concept was the driving force behind Cloud-9. We have created a seat with a large surface area and removed the painful seat horn which causes painful contact points in the crotch and buttock areas. This results in a seat that is perfect for elderly riders or anyone tired of the pain caused by typical bicycle seats.”

“The comfortable, "sofa-sized" Lycra bicycle saddle is the largest bike saddle SunLite offers, measuring 11.5-by-12.5-inches (W x D). Elastomer spring suspension provides optimal impact absorption and long life, and a vented anatomic design provides optimal airflow and a custom fit that relieves pressure on sensitive areas and reduces fatigue, even on long rides. This is the Largest Bike Seat available. Not to soft and not to firm but just right to make those long rides more comfortable. Saddle has bottom coil springs to help cushion the ride.”

SELLE AN-ATOMICA This company called MCM manufactures "Selle An-Atomica" bicycle saddles in the state of Wisconsin USA. They also sell titanium cassettes. Their products appear on their website as maybe more for the road racing type of bicycle use. There are probably a lot of recreational bicycle riders who prefer to use slender racing type saddles. But read this: "All models are excellent choices suitable for any type of bike or rider; weekend warriors, road & off road racing, brevet / randonneur, double century, road & mountain bikes, cruiser bikes, etc.

“Titanico is our widest at 145-155mm, offering the most accommodating sit bone contact area.

All our saddles are suitable for road, mountain, and cruiser bikes".”

RIDO-CYCLE SADDLES I have purchased to date two of these seats. I think the company is based in England and they give me good dependable service. The seat is completely different than any other i have tried, but seems to work well. It is not a soft comfy type of seat - it just seems to be designed in such a way as to prevent butt pain but no real cushy type comfort. Also, i think it will take a little while to get used to. I like them and would or will buy more from them. I am putting them at the top of the list because this seat seems to me to work well and does what the inventor says it will do. It is a low cost light weight well designed saddle . . .

“Sitting comfortably on a bicycle is all about the effective dispersal and manipulation of the pressure of the downward force of the rider's weight as it impacts on the saddle's surface. Subtly shifting the pressure away from those sensitive and delicate areas of the anatomy and onto those parts for which sitting is really intended. This is the RIDO saddle concept and it will both rejuvenate and enhance your enjoyment of cycling.”

COMFORT SADDLE This website has been up for quite awhile. This business is based in the UK. They have one model only of this seat and it is suitable for all types of people i guess.

“The Comfort Saddle is a revolutionary breakthrough in bike seat comfort for recreational cyclists. It is a unique bike seat designed to alleviate the discomfort many cyclists experience with conventional saddles. The patented RQ8 suspension system moves with you as you pedal, matching the motion of the seat to your natural swaying movements, giving you a more efficient, balanced and smoother ride. The suspension does not require you to balance on the horn of a bicycle seat so the Comfort Saddle has no horn. It can take you over any terrain without risking damage to those parts of your body normally defended by your pelvis, that conventional horned saddles are so perfectly designed to defeat.”

“Ideal Saddle Modification is the brainchild of Steve Toll, an avid cyclist and swimmer living in Tampa, Florida. In the winter of 1997, following a bike ride with his wife, Laura, Steve sketched out a design for a seat he thought would eliminate, or at least reduce, the discomfort most riders experience on a traditional bike saddle. By 1999, with some assistance from his family, the concept was patented. That's a significant milestone for an industry that hasn't seen a major saddle change in years. Flash forward to today - through hard work and tenacity, Steve has not only created a state-of-the-art bike saddle, he is also being sought out by experts in the cycling industry who want the opportunity to test and ride the ISM™. Our staff lives for cycling. If we aren't working an expo on the weekends or on the phones taking orders, chances are you'll see us mixing it up at local road rides, terrorizing the trails, or training for our next triathlon. If you see us at an event, come by and chat. Chances are you'll even get a free t-shirt or transition towel for test riding a saddle. We hope you contact us with any of your questions. Call and you'll get a real person with real answers. E-mail us and you'll receive a response in hours. ISM™ promises to deliver the best customer service possible.

KOOBI SADDLES Presenting "Handmade saddles from Italy". For those of you who prefer a more racy slender looking saddle, this might be for you. Most or all of the Koobi saddles are designed to provide a certain level of comfort depending on several factors such as your gender, your weight, hours per week of riding, type of biking: Mountain, road, time trial, etc. These saddles look to be well made and have their own unique identity.

BROOKS B66 SADDLE Another popular model from Brooks Saddles. I have not tried this particular model, but i have used the B-67 model only difference being the manner in which they attach to the seat post.

“The B66 and B66 S are among BROOKS's most loved products, having been on the market since 1927. Classically sprung with double rails for supreme comfort, B66 and B66 S are the ideal all-rounders for daily city or touring use in a rather upright posture. They are most appropriate for cyclists who set their handlebars higher than their saddles. In general, the more upright your riding posture, the wider, and more heavily sprung, the saddle you should choose.”

“The B135 is one of our most heavily-sprung models designed for use on third world country roads, featuring double rear coil springs and a double loop front spring. Seating comfort is accounted for by the leather top, which has the same shape of our well known B66 model. It is one of the most comfortable saddles you will ever own. Full suspension, mounts to new micro-adjust seat posts with adapter (seat sandwich available from wallbike.com or Harriscyclery.net: Brooks Seat Sandwich (SA003) $17.95). Unlike the single rail saddles that use one set of very stiff springs, this model incorporates the tried and true dual spring suspension design. Two sets of springs with variable tension give the plushest ride available. No need for suspension bikes that cost a fortune. Length: 289mm, Width: 205mm, Height: 117mm, Weight: 1630g.”

BROOKS SADDLES DOUBLE RAIL ADAPTER Here is the "Seat Sandwich" we have discussed somewhere else on this website used to attach seats like the Brooks B-135 to your micro-adjust seatpost. This is actually called the: "Breezer double-rail adaptor for Brooks saddles and one-bolt seatposts". It's called "Breezer" because the the Breezer bicycle company makes it i guess, but it is sold by the Niagara Cycle Works.

SCHWINN NO PRESSURE BICYCLE SEAT This seat has a fairly high star rating on Amazon.com. I have used one similar to it and i did not like it. But, don't let that stop you from buying and trying, because you might like it. Keep in mind that it is very important with these seats to get the adjustment of the pitch (tilt) and height just right in order to maximize the comfort of these seats. As i remember, the seat limited my pedaling and i concluded it was only useful on something like a cruiser bike or something where a person would go very slow. To me it was like trying to pedal sitting on a chair. Please click on the picture at the right to buy from Amazon.com as your purchase helps to support this site at no extra cost to you. Thanks, ~gg

SPONGY WONDER BICYCLE SEAT I bought one of these seats. They make a heavy-duty seat for people over the standard weight limit. You can see the seat mounted on my Xootr bike. But i have experienced a lot of soreness from the seat and have temporarily suspended it's use until i can find some way to make the seat more comfortable. It is a very well built seat but there is not much "give" to the heavy-duty seat and maybe this is contributing to the problem. I ended up selling the seat to a lady on eBay and she told me she likes it. However, i have since purchased another one to use on one of my 20in folding bikes which has a pretty good suspension system to help absorb road shock(s). These seats are really well made and are very good quality. Also, want to mention the "Seat Cover" offered for sale is a good item to use on the pads, i always buy them for my Spongy Wonder seats.

BROOKS B68 BICYCLE SADDLE (MEN'S) There is an important point mentioned here: To maximize comfort you must use this seat with a bicycle equipt with a suspension frame or maybe/probably a "Thudbuster" seat post may work with this saddle without a suspension frame.

REALSEAT™ BICYCLE SEAT I remember when this seat first came out. I was skeptical about them staying in business because everyone is so sensitive about appearance, i did not think they would sell enough of these to stay in business. But, guess what! It looks like i was wrong and i am glad i was wrong and i am glad they are still in business and also it appears they have made changes to the design, looks to be a little more "Aircraft Quality" material. I am going to buy one of these seats.

“The home of the world's widest & most comfortable seats for bicycles! Our noseless & hornless bike seat is a soft & flexible comfort bicycle seat available in multiple sizes & colors that easily installs in minutes to any & all styles of new or older used women's and men's bicycles, including most exercise or stationary bikes, geriatric trikes, electric 'e-bikes' bicycles, and some electric or gas scooters.

UN-Saddle® OK, I have had this listing up for quite awhile, possibly about 5 years. In the meantime their website has changed locations somewhat and i do not know what is going on with this saddle, whether it is still being sold or not. The webpage for this saddle is somewhat buried in my opinion and a little difficult to find. This is another one of those seats that comes with a pre-attached seat post. You can select the right size seat post from their drop-down list. But, anyway they have three models to choose from: the "STANDARD", the QUALITY, & the "PREMIUM". And they do have an online order system in place, so you can still order this seat from their website. You might want to call them first to check on saddle availability though. Picture on the right is of their "Quality" model.

“The UN~Saddle® prevents the pushing forward of the upper body, ensuring proper and continuous ischial support. This also enables various positioning on the seat, for different cycling situations, without need of rail adjusting. It straightens out the legs stroke correcting the outward movement of the knees and eliminating the related injuries. As a further result of this, the legs work perpendicular on the pedals, maximizing the efficiency of the stroke and the overall performance. The UN~Saddle® allows natural mobility in the pelvis area: The thigh muscles can fully contract without stressing the femur, hip and lower lumbar vertebrae preventing lower back pain. It improves the ability to transfer the weight when maneuvering. It also corrects the effects of one leg being shorter than the other, by evening out pedaling stroke. The UN~Saddle® prevents muscular and vascular compression in the perineum and the genitalia eliminating the risk of loss of circulation in the pelvic areas and the danger of both temporary and permanent impotence. It improves agility and quick reacting in technical riding. The UN~Saddle® offers an ideal supportive surface, an efficient fulcrum for the legs and the body to "lean against" rather than to "hang from". It also prevents chafing of the inner thighs. The UN~Saddle® facilitates to find the ideal position for each type of cycling, utilizing the best geometry of the bike. Shock Absorbing Too! The UN~Saddle® provides extra comfort with the three point elastomer cushioning.”

SELLE ROYAL RESPIRO XSENIUM SADDLE This is the men's model. Selle Royal has a good selection of comfort seats. Most or all are pretty much standard bicycle seat style, that means they all have a "horn or nose". Please click on the picture at the right to buy from Amazon.com as your purchase helps to support this site at no extra cost to you. Thanks, ~gg

“Selle Royal Respiro Moderate Men's Cool Xsenium Saddle is dedicated to the demanding cyclist. In hot weather, when leaving a bike in the sun or riding for a long period of time, a saddle can increase in temperature. Rising above the rider's skin temperature, the saddle creates an unpleasant feeling of perspiration and discomfort. Eventually this discomfort can cause pain. Respiro, meaning breathe in Italian, avoids this by keeping the saddle up to 25 percent cooler thanks to the cool microtex cover and the ventilation channel. This saddle is anatomically designed specifically for men for maximum comfort and blood flow. The moderate design of the saddle focuses RoyalGel padding in the middle to rear of the saddle to provide more relief where the sit bones and weight of the rider is located. Xsenium is a rubberized vinyl cover that allows the RoyalGel below to move freely and more dynamically in all three dimensions. Specs: Color - Black; Rail - Magnesium Galvanized; Weight - 465 grams; Length - 277mm; Width - 182mm; ICS - Yes; Mod. Elastomers - Yes.”

BROOKS SPANNER WRENCH This is the wrench used to tighten or loosen the nut on the Brooks Saddles equipped with such a nut. Some Brooks Saddles do not use this wrench, but instead you have to use a long shank (8in long x 3/8in wide tip long shank or longer best) flat blade screwdriver to adjust the tension screw under the leather cover of the saddle.

COMFORT LINE This website and video is in the German language and i sure wish they had an english version, because they feature some comfort saddles in a very clear manner. I think the first seat shown is the "Anatomic 412", the second is the "BigBen Saddle" and the third is the "DD Wings" and the fourth is the "Wings Saddle" and the fifth is the "Manta Saddle". Even if you cannot speak German this is a good video to watch.

“In order to take care that you select an incorrect saddle offers COMFORTLINE you a 4-week test warranty, in which you have plenty of time to the selected saddle to test it on your own bike or to return if not 100% satisfied ( except the carbon saddles are the Black Mamba line). Do not hoard saddles, but go the right and most comfortable saddle for you!”

THE PUMP SEAT This seat is different in that you actually pump air into the seat to establish a personal level of comfort. Actually, this website has been up for quite a long while. I had started this page probably over 5 years ago and they were listed here at the start as far as i can remember.

“The Pump Seats is a Montana company offering the only genuine air cushioned bicycle seat on the market. A revolution in biking comfort the seat features a patented air bladder system that is fully adjustable to accommodate all body types and biking styles. The Pump Seats are like riding on a cloud. They can eliminate the pelvic, rump and back discomfort commonly found with bicycle or stationary bike seats. The Pump Seats patented air bladder system is easily adjusted with a small hand pump allowing for inflation or deflation of the seat according to individual comfort and riding needs. Another feature is removable seat coverings, constructed with a smooth lycra fabric, make getting on and off the bike easy. The coverings are washable and can be replaced if necessary. Each seat is handcrafted and features a generous sandwich of high density foam between the air bladder and the ergonomically designed seat platform.”

The Pump Seats come in four styles:
• The Limo - Just as its name implies this is the ultimate comfort a bike seat can offer. This seat is designed for use on stationary bikes or on a cruiser bike. With a seating area of 105 square inches it is the widest Pump Seat and has six times more surface area of other seats designed to protect the perineum. In addition, the Limo has a full inch of medium density foam over the air cushion, allowing the rider to use a very low air pressure while maintain clearance for the crotch.

• Hornless Limo - This sleek seat is the only hornless adjustable air seat on the market. It can be adjusted to your own comfort level by using the hand held pump, which comes with the seat.

“Back in the 1890's John Boultbee Brooks developed the first saddles featuring 3 springs, 2 at the rear and 1 at the front. The B73, introduced in the 1935 catalogue, is the only model still featuring this construction. The B73 is similar in shape and dimensions to B66, so it is appropriate for recreational or utility cycling in a fairly upright posture. Please note that some cyclists comment that the B73 has more lateral motion than our other saddles, because of the extra front spring. The honey leather saddle features tubular steel rivets, and weighs 1100 grams.”
- Features Three Springs: Two at the Rear, One in Front
- Used for Recreational or Utility Cycling in an Upright Posture
- More Lateral Motion from Front Spring

BROOKS B68 IMPERIAL SADDLE The model listed here is the men's model in the black color. This seat has no springs, just a center cut-out. One reviewer on Amazon.com says: "Being that I restore Vintage British bicycles Brooks is synonymous with these machines. Most of them came with them from the factory as Brooks was a subsidiary of Raleigh. But the sheer quality and durability of these saddles is legendary. Whilst quality was a passing issue through the late 60's into the seventies, with misaligned tags, and loose rivets, however all of these issues have long been remedied. The quality of the saddles today is perfection and there is no equal in the industry. They are still hand made by highly skilled workers, fine materials go into the construction, and if you take care of the leather and ONLY tension the saddle when it properly needs it - it should last at least 30 years. They are the best saddles made in the world period. The imperial cut-outs do relieve some pressure, and I have had NONE of the issues of the sides of the cutout being uncomfortable or feeling them flex whilst riding. I would recommend to tighten the lace in the saddle sides. I will personally use NO other saddle than an imperial. They feel great, break in much faster than others, and the lace and cut outs look great. If you have ANY numbness whilst cycling try one of these saddles."

“The B68 Imperial features the central cut-out, first designed by BROOKS over 100 years ago. The "Registered Cutting", as can be read in the 1890 catalog, is "a sure preventive to all perineal pressure". Made In England”

BI-SADDLE® This seat has been around for quite some time and appears to be quite heavy-duty looking in the pictures. I have not tried this seat yet, but would kind of like to try it. It is different than anything i have up on this website.

“The saddle is designed to support riders only on the bottom of their pelvic girdle and not put pressure on any soft tissue (perineum). The saddle consists of two individually adjustable surfaces that have two points of adjustment each (front and back, thus lots of adjustability). These surfaces are contoured to fit the curvature of the bottom bones of the pelvic girdle (Ischiopubic rami and Ischial Tuberosities to be exact). These surfaces are mounted on a frame that allows the surfaces to be positioned to allow for both separation and angular variations. The design also eliminates the pressure that the standard saddle horn puts on nerves, arteries & veins that run along the sides of the ischiopubic rami (legs of the V). The adjustability of the surfaces was initially thought to allow riders to position the surfaces directly underneath their unique pelvic architecture. Subsequent experience has shown that positioning of the surfaces must also take into account individual variations in where nerves, veins and arteries exist. The latest version of the BiSaddle® includes optional height shims for the surfaces to accommodate potential pelvic variations.”

MOONSADDLE I am happy to see so many different people developing these comfortable bicycle seats. Here's another one.
Update 6-12-05: The "MoonSaddle" website is back up. That's great!

“Will MoonSaddle fit on my existing seat post? Yes, MoonSaddle should fit MOST standard seat posts. In 2008 we redesigned the rails, helping to ensure that you can install the saddle on your existing seat post with minimal effort and adjustment. However, there is such a variety of seat posts being used on bicycles today, that we do occasionally come across a seat post that will not work with the MoonSaddle. In this instance, we would recommend purchasing the Inline Alloy Seat post and Clamp we offer for sale. You will need to know the diameter, measured in millimeters, of your existing seat post so that we can ship you the correct size. It is usually stamped into the metal towards the top or bottom of the post, and might appear as: 27.2mm or similar. Is MoonSaddle just for casual riders? NO! MoonSaddle is for everyone! We have a very diverse clientele, from casual riders to commuters to folks training for triathlons to people doing century rides to people who have ridden MoonSaddles clear across the United States! The common theme among all of our customers is getting away from the pain and health risks associated with riding a traditional "nosed" bicycle saddle. Is MoonSaddle just for men? NO! MoonSaddle is for men, women, even children! The benefits to men are obvious, however we have just as many female riders as male riders. Regardless of gender, size or shape, we all have nerves, blood vessels and other soft tissues that are impinged while riding a traditional seat. Everyone should experience the many benefits from riding the MoonSaddle! Am I too large for MoonSaddle, and are there different sizes? NO! One of the beautiful things about MoonSaddle's unique and innovative design is that one size fits all! The concept of the MoonSaddle is that your "Sit Bones" are being supported in the lip of the saddle. Because of MoonSaddle's shape, there would never be an instance of someone having "Sit Bones" that are wider than the base of support the saddle offers. You do not want a saddle that supports your soft tissues, causing pain, numbness and potentially permanent damage. What is the difference between the '08 model and the '07 model? The saddle itself is the same, the difference is in the rails. The '07 models have rails that are much closer to the saddle body and do not have the built-in 20-30 degree angle. (When you mount the MoonSaddle it should NOT be horizontal. It should sit on your bike at a 20-30 degree angle, adjusted slightly for the angle that is most comfortable to you.) The '08 model has rails with the angle built right in, and there is more space between the saddle and the rails which allows for easier adjustment and the use of saddle bags, etc. Why is MoonSaddle shaped like a crescent moon? MoonSaddle has a unique shape, no question about that! It is designed this way for many reasons. First of all, the shape provides pressure free support for all sizes and genders of people. Paired with sitting at a 20-30 degree angle on your bike, it is shaped this way to minimize interference with the downstroke motion of pedaling. It has the raised portions on each side of the surface of the saddle to provide a "lip" where your sit bones are cradled, preventing you from sliding forward on the saddle. Last but not least, the balance and control you sacrifice from not having a "nose" on the saddle is regained in the "tips" of the MoonSaddle. Riders report that they learn to use their bodies differently with a MoonSaddle, and they use their hips against these "tips" for better balance and control of their bicycles. What if I buy MoonSaddle and I don't like it? You can try MoonSaddle for up to 60 days from the date of purchase. If you aren't satisfied for any reason, you may return it for a full refund (minus a $10 restocking charge and shipping and handling charges). Are there any local dealers where I can see MoonSaddle? Yes, we have several showroom dealers across the USA and one in the UK. However we are still a fairly small but steadily growing company and we are always looking for more bicycle shops to carry our saddles, so if you have a favorite bike shop, email us and we'll be happy to contact them to see if they are interested in becoming a showroom. What keeps me from just sliding off? The raised portions on each side of the surface of the saddle to provide a "lip" where your sit bones are cradled, preventing you from sliding forward on the saddle.”

TERRY CITE Y GEL SADDLE This saddle has mixed reviews on Amazon. some people like it and at least one person claims this seat is just an ordinary bicycle saddle - i guess he means no special comfort level. But, about this saddle from the manufacturer: "Designed for the recreational rider who spends a half day on the bike or less, rides nearly upright with lots of weight against the saddle, prefers the closest thing to a pillow, or has significant lower back pain. A completely seamless, gel top with large cutaway is guaranteed to hit and miss in all the right places. Updated with elegant new graphics, the Cite's long-lasting synthetic vinyl top is easy to maintain and will look new for years."

“Meet Georgena Terry: I started this company in my basement in 1985 after figuring out rather quickly that corporate life wasn't my cup of tea. Being a mechanical engineer and passionate about bicycles, I learned the fine art of bike frame building and began making bicycles for myself and friends who couldn't find bikes that fit properly. After selling out at a trade show, I quit my job at Xerox and founded Terry Precision Bicycles for Women. The engineer and entrepreneur in me saw a huge, untapped market for bikes that fit women. This was revolutionary thinking 20+ years ago -- and still is! Today, I continue to be consumed by all things cycling and have dedicated my professional life to making Terry Precision the ultimate resource for female cyclists, whether it's products or information that can't be found anywhere else. I personally ride 6000 miles annually, testing all manner of products so if something has "georgena's choice" on it, you can be certain it's the real deal. I feel fortunate to have hired like-minded people to work at Terry. Everyone here is committed to making our customers happy. Helping select the right gear. Finding the right size or right saddle. Working with a bike shop to get a Terry demo bike. I encourage you to write me at talktous@terrybicycles.com and let me know what we can do better.”
