Review on Padded Gel Bike Seat Cover - Bikeroo Cushion For Peloton & Exercise: Adjustable For Men & Women'S Comfort On Stationary, Mountain & Road Bicycle Seats by Nick Kirschenmann

I'm not really sure why exercise bikes are always made with young people in mind as far as the seats are concerned. Even when I was young, narrow seating would bother me within minutes. Now that I'm considered a "senior," the seats are even worse than before!So I bought a seat that was wider, and it was good, but it was hard and still not as comfortable as I'd like, so then I bought this gel seat covering which really improved the comfort level. And I would have given it a 5 star rating if it wasn't for the outside material. Listen, I'm an average height for a woman at an average weight, and I don't go out buying the latest exercise pants that are out there for exercise enthusiasts. I just wear average sweat pants when I get on my bike. So, although the seat is more comfortable with this additional cushion, the outside material is so slippery that I have to adjust how I'm sitting every few seconds (no kidding,) or I slip forward so much that I almost fall off and hit the handlebars! These gels seats are a wonderful idea for anyone who needs a seat to feel softer, but what good is it when I can't stay on?I thought long and hard before typing up this review because I don't like saying negative things, but I'm almost to the point where I'm going to remove this cushion completely. The shifting and adjusting is causing more chaffing than without it. I would BEG the manufacturer to change the type of material on the outside of this gel cushion to a different type that doesn't make me feel that I'm going to fall off head first!
