Anyone have recommendations for better seating? The seat is not very comfortable so I am wondering if anyone has purchases any other type of seat?

I added a Bell gel fusion seat cover for longer rides for short rides it's comfy enough with padded bike shorts.

My girlfriend replaced the stock seat with the Sunlite Cloud-9 Comfort Saddle, and she's thrilled with it. It's got gel padding as well as spring shocks, which gives a much smoother ride than the default seat.

Padding isn't terrible but not fantastic either. B/c of the saddle shape it does cause a sore butt for a week or so. It's great now with no aches or pains. I'm 5'8" 128 with boney behind. Love the chair for the price. Their are higher end saddle chairs that have A+ padding but they are $500.00+.

I find the seat quite comfortable w/o anything added. Think of a very firm hammock, if that helps.

that was not an issue with my use . Seat in my opinon is well made (sturdy) an should accomodate most . The only issue that I can see is the with of the seat may not fit larger people but possibly trying a cushion may possibly take care of that problem . You have to try and see.

Well, I guess anything will help. I just wasn't impressed with it. You probably could find a regular seat cushion at wal-mart or somewhere that is cheaper and will do just as well. I went ahead and had my seats made over with the gel put inside them by a pro. That made it a whole lot better. The bad thing is that it cost alot more also! $500 for the two back rest, pass. and driver seat. If you travel alot, it worth the cost.

You can buy cushions from various stores for rockers although they are quite expensive. I bought just a cushion for the seat.

I don't have a problem with it but I do remember having to tighten it pretty tight. That said, it is not a comfy seat to begin with. I would recommend going to a bike and get a good one. That's what I am doing.

The seat is only comfortable for a few minutes. I use the seat to take a break and cycle in between elliptical sessions. I read somewhere that there is a replacement seat with cushion but I haven't done any research on trying to purchase it. Hope this helps. Happy cycling!

Id reccomend it. I have a minor back problem and it doesnt bothr me with this seat. Its just not as soft as descibed but it is way better then the stock seats that bikes come with. Overall i like it and its pretty comfortable. It would be a good seat if you have a back problem in my opinion. Hope this helps.

The seat works fine for me and for my wife. That said, there are a lot of pull-over cushions out there. It's really kind of personal preference thing.

I'm curious too. I was researching this seat at various forums and it looks like the price once dropped to $199.

I believe the opening to be A BIT larger than the standard seat it replaced. But the one it replaced was not open in the front. What makes it most comfortable for large adults probably makes it uncomfortable for children under 12. But I doubt if it is any less safe than the standard commode seat.

The seating was firm it did not sag. However I did send my comments in regarding my experience - it was not favorable. I did not keep it as it was not shipped as ordered. You can see my comments. NGB

no seat is extremely comfortable. Lent it to someone at a game and she loved it.

Hi - apologies for the late response. We still have this problem. It's really not very comfortable.
