Can the seat on this bike be changed out if it not comfortable?

Hello. I did send the bike back. Amazon's service was great, once again. The left hand was tearing in two places. The chain drive is very loud. There is no way to fix that. New road bikes don't have that noise. This one gear spinner should not be so loud. I liked the elbow pads, however that is a where the hands go. One of the pedals came off and was stripped. It would not go back on. I know I put it on correctly. For a new product this should not have so many problems. Spend a little more and get a quality product. I got what I paid for.

Yes. The bike has a standard seat mounting post. When choosing a seat, you will need to be sure that you have a seat post collar which either comes with the saddle or you acquire a standard bicycle seat post mounting collar. Some saddles include this collar some just have rails that attach to the collar. Most bike shops will have the seat post collar as a part you can buy for about $7 or less. Basically look at the saddle you want to buy and see if it has a circular fitting for mounting to a cylindrical post or just a pair of rails and go from there as to its mounting.

It's painful.. If I kept it I would have switched the seat. It's a common seat post.

The answer is yes. But the bike fit will not be right. The saddle height will have to be raised and the torso position relative to the handle bars will not be aero and can cause back pain with the crouched position.

It's not designed to be. Seat would be very comfortable. I have sat on it for a short period of time.

The seat was included, but it is very uncomfortable if you are planning to use it as a bike for any length of time.

You should not have to...I took my old seat off and used the same hardware to put the new one on.Of course, you will want to take a picture of how the seat is attached to the post and a close up on how theparts go together to hold the seat in place. (I wish I had done a better job taking the parts off and remembering how they were on the seat!) Easier idea, bring it to your local bike shop, just the post and seat, they will haveit on within minutes!Enjoy the ride.....

It is possible for me to rest my arms on the handlebars while seated. However, it is not very comfortable.

Overall not exactly a comfortable bike to ride on .. I had to go and buy my own seat ... I don't luv it at all

Mine changed a bit to be honest, but we have a mountain bike. We have friends that bought the seat for their beach cruiser and they have no position change. Even with a bit of "knee bumping" i would still recommend this seat for sure. The kids LOVE it! and it is worth it.

There's a quick release lever that attaches the seat post to the bike. Throwing the lever will allow you to adjust the seat height or remove it.

Yes, it's adjustable in the length from the sit to the peddles. So you can set it where it's most comfortable for you.

No but you should be able to replace the seat with a different one go to a bike store with the seat they can help you

very easy to adjust but you have to get off the bike to do it. Seat is rather uncomfortable but otherwise bike is exactly as the ones at my apartment complex gym and like the one at Gold's Gym where I used to be a member.I really love this bike. Did a lot of research before I ordered it

Personally, I don't think the seat is that bad. I've been on a lot of real bikes that were less comfortable.

The handle bar is not adjustable. I do not know if you will be comfortable, but the seat is adjustable and will be able to fit you.

It Has to be taken to a bike shop. Or if you have previous experience you can change the flat

The seat is a standard bicycle shaft size so you should be able to use any seat you like. Its common to change the seat to one that fits your sit bones best.

No, not really. But its a fixie so the seat is supposed to be thin and skinny. Its really strong tho! I've had this bike for about 7 months now and its in really really good condition. Considiring I ride the bike 5x a week.
