Is this a good saddle for a ROAD bike?

I personally think it is great for the road... but I am no biking expert! I have done a few 20 milers... but that is about it, mostly just 5 or 6 miles at a time. But, the seat is very comfortable to me.

Probably not unless you are a very casual rider. Too wide and soft for road efficiency.

This is a slightly wider, comfortable touring saddle - not a narrow racing saddle. it is on a classic Raleigh Road Bike.

Although the Bell Memory Foam Saddle is more comfortable than a standard saddle seat, I still witnessed the typical discomfort during and after longer rides. Subsequently I moved on to an Ergo bicycle seat, now I can ride all day in comfort both physically and knowing the design is truly a healthier way to ride. Looks different than a standard saddle, but you will never give it up.

The padding is good and the inside liner is removable. Having a padded short helps but also make sure the seat you have should also be comfortable for long rides. Taking a short brake off the saddle is also good tip to do for long rides. Hope this helps.

Saddles are universal as far as the rails that attach to the seat post so any brand saddle will fit any brand bike. I'm sure there are exceptions with very elite, expensive bikes but for the common cyclist this is not a problem.

Well,I bought the Sunny Health & Fitness Pro Indoor Cycling Bike and put it on that seat.You can search for that bike and see the seat size from the pictures.It's your standard size Road Bike seat which is fairly small.

I like these shorts. The padding is very good, but probably not as good as higher-end road shorts. Keep in mind that a lot of discomfort comes from poor saddle fit or poor bike fit, and even the best padded shorts will not eliminate that.

The rack can fit a road bike. It really depends on your frame. Generally the taller the frame, the better it fits. Otherwise you need to make an adapter like I did showing in the pictures to fix it with the seat tube.

Hello Joy, I used my original hardware. And I do love my saddle. Makes it comfortable to ride. Gale

I currently have this on a road bike and I don't think it is too big but, it is bigger than I expected. I have a tube , small tool kit, pressure gauge, and CO2 cartridges that fill it up. Maybe a little room left over.

Saddle and it works perfect.. they do tell you a few times in the instructions to make sure to line saddle up with the hole.I've had no problems.

The saddle is comfortable but you should get stirrup rotators. The stirrups do not turn easily and cause legs to be uncomfortable. I hope that this helps.

I used mine on various motorcycle handle bars. Should fit on road bike bars. It's has multiple slots for adjustment.

it's just like a regular quality bicycle. the pedal threads are 9/16", right and left, and the saddle support rails are standard. use the existing saddle clamp and your preferred saddle. btw, if your butt hurts because you think this saddle is not soft enough you are unfortunately barking up the wrong tree. in a few weeks of use you will stop hurting. toughen up! padding makes you work harder in the wrong places. make sure you have the saddle position correct. most folks set too low. this puts a big strain on the knees. rick in vermont.

You're riding on street right? I would assume since you're looking for a road bike. I owned one for awhile. When I first got it, the rim was bent, contacted amazon, the shipped a new bike out and told me to take what I needed and ship it back. If you're tall, it may be a little to small. I'm 5ft 11 and it was fine for me. The only issue is the pedals are kinda low, so if you take a sharp turn and your foot is extended all the way your pedal will hit the asphalt. If I were you, I would save up extra $$ and get a better bike. It's a decent bike but you spend a few hundred more and get a lot better bike.

the seat takes some getting used to. if you aren't used to typical road bike seats you may want to get a gel cover for it or get a softer seat that isn't as punishing on sensitive areas.

I don't think it will fit on a road bike but it works awesome on a mountain bike. I have two of them
