Customer Rating:      Summary: Comfy Comment: Bought this for my stationary exercise bike. Naturally it didn't fit the post. We adapted the connection (lot of trouble) and now it fits and is a big comfort improvement over the original seat. Wish these came with some form of adapter!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Comfort bike seat Comment: My dad like the comfort of this seat but it didn't come with a
bracket to hold the seat in the bike.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Better, but not quite right. Comment: Because I'm a man, I can appreciate the "freedom" this seat offers my man-parts while riding. And because I'm a thin man, I double appreciate the wide cushion shape not digging into my posterior. Unfortunately, I find myself struggling not to slip forward right off the seat. And that's no good either. So I'm still on the hunt for the perfect bicycle seat... One that cushions my behind, doesn't squish my man-parts, and holds me in place while riding.
Pros: Very comfortable on the behind. No pressure on the family jewels.
Cons: As slippery as a slip 'n slide, even when using it on my stationary bike.
Customer Rating:      Summary: a good thing after getting used to! Comment: At first, I rated 1 for it because it felt so strange when riding on it. Your arms would feel strained, your shoulders too. But after the first one week or two, you will begin to love this product, because it do help you get rid of the numbness you used to feel after sessions of cycling on regular seats.
A shortcoming to some people who like to rest one or even no hands on their handlebar is that it's really difficult to balance the bike without two hands when using this seat. I hate this because I like using one hand for umbrella when it rains. Otherwise, good product.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Perfect for Stationary Equipment Comment: I needed to replace the original saddle of my second bicycle. My first bike was already fitted with an Ergo "The Seat" Ultimate Gel saddle and I wanted to see if I could better my riding experience even more. So this time I ordered the Schwinn No Pressure Seat.
This seat was very easy to install. After several trips around town, here are my thoughts:
1) It is definitely more comfortable that a traditional saddle. However it seemed I was always sliding off no matter what adjustments I made.
2) If looks and styling are important to you, look elsewhere. This seat seems to be more about practical comfort
3) For me, the Ergo Seat wins hands down in terms of styling and comfort (See my review on Amazon). I choose to get another one for my second bike. My kids love it too.
However the story does not end there. My dad recently complained that he could no longer exercise on his old stationary bike because the seat had become too uncomfortable for his aging butt. I dug the Schwinn seat out of the garage, installed on the stationary bike and it was perfect. Since there is no forward momentum on a stationery bike, the sliding off problem disappeared. Dad now spends a longer time on his bike exercising instead of moaning.
So I would give the Schwinn No Pressure seat full marks for use with stationary equipment. However, for darn good looks and functionality when riding on the road, try the Ergo Seat.
