Everytime I ride it's for at least ten miles and I love it so comfortable if you are doig a lot of road riding I think it's great!

I purchased this seat for my daughter who uses her bike at college. It is approx 2" thick and wide. The gel construction makes the seat very comfortable and I would say it is great for tooling around campus but will not work if you are a serious rider who does 30+ mile rides.

My wife's seat (ladies) is comfortable. This seat is more unisex although the only thing I don't like about it is the spandex-like cover. The best bike seat I've come across is the Bell Memory Foam Saddle, Recline 800 which you can get at Walmart or Target for around $20. Comfortable in the rear and scrotum especially during long rides. I've ridden 2-3 hours straight without any discomforts.

Absolutely. I think I'm in pretty good shape, and biking at a resistance level of 5 is burning my legs after about 10 minutes. This thing is really smooth. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Yes certainly.The broader the seat, the more comfortable your bum. Happy riding.

I have never ridden more than a mile. At first the handlebars were turned too high. But after adjusting them down the bicycle was much more steady and comfortable. And, I could ride much further but have no need to.

I would likely say "yes", but unfortunately only ride 10 miles or less per day. However the bike is great. I like everything from the color, the hybrid features, the comfort and dependability of the bike, and how easy it is to ride. Shifting is fast and smooth, and I have experienced no problem with the bike itself.

No, I have a malti-poo that ways 10 lbs. No, it would be uncomfortable for hiking or biking however it depends on your comfort.

I've found this padding to be comparable to my other cycling shorts, which I wear for century rides (5-6 hours). I think most of my shorts are rated for moderate riding, so that's probably what these are rated as well. If you're looking for padding as a way to help make your seat more comfortable on a bike, you might want to consider visiting a bike shop and comparing bike saddles as an additional option. I've been happy with these tights and have found them very comfortable. I've worn them on 2-3 hour rides with no problems. And as I said, they're comparable to the bike shorts that I wear for much longer rides. (I don't usually ride longer in the colder weather, so I haven't tested the tights on a century ride.)

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

i did purchase a gel cover the one recommeded for this seat. It is a little more comforting for the longer rides. Just remember it is not a couch. It is a work out peice that unless you buy a saddle will not totally be comfortable.

You should be okay! You can adjust your seat to the lowest position and still be able to cycle to the fullest.

Yes, most definitely, I use it when I ride my bike for an extended period of time and it is very comfortable.

I have used it on long distance back country mountain bike rides. It works very well. I would caution you as there is a lot of room and the pack can get heavy quick if you use it all.

You bet! Or anyone, especially heavier, or older individuals, or those ride long distances 15-20-30 miles. I can sit down and 'cruise' as long as my legs will last, now. Before, my butt was what determined the length of my ride. Now, its my stamina and muscle reserve, which is as it ought to be. Its like having a couch on your bike...

I bought this seat for my mountain bike and it did not fit to well on my seat.. It is comfortable and good price. I would just make sure it fits the seat your putting it on..

On a recommendation of a bicycle shop owner, in 2011, I had this seat put on my touring bike and took off for a 4400 mile tour. I rode the rest of the year with this seat (another 5000 mile). In 2012, I rode this seat on a 3400 mile tour, a 1100 mile tour and all recreational riding. In 2013, I rode this seat on a 3800 miles tour and it tore at one of the seams. I immediately replaced it with this same seat. I am still touring and I am so happy with the comfort of this seat, I will never buy another brand or model until I can no longer get this. Like any seat, it take a few rides to reach a maximum comfort level but once you get there, I believe you will be extremely happy.
