Review on 😌 Ultimate Comfort and Support: Planet Bike A.R.S. Classic Men's Bike Seat in Black & Silver by David Miller

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Not bad at all.: Sport

I am new to endurance cycling and got this seat to replace the standard Schwinn seat that came with my road bike. I almost always got hurt from the stock seat. The new seat was installed with no problems. The padding is excellent compared to my old seat. It's definitely more convenient in every way. But I will say it. I often adapt to find a happy medium. I also tend to drift in the saddle when riding. This is probably due to the extra padding. It's also probably the widest saddle I would put on a road bike. Generally I wouldn't use this if you're racing as the reconfiguration will last your ride. However, I found that I wasn't adjusting because of the pain, but simply to find a happy medium and stay within it. When I start caring about every second I'll look for better saddles, but for the price, this seat offers some much-needed comfort. I'm currently cycling between 10 and 15 km. But I'm not sure about the anatomical relief. If you're having trouble with that, I don't know what this will solve. If your buttocks hurt, this is a great solution
