Review on 🚴 Enhanced Comfort: Domain Cycling Extra Large Gel Exercise Bike Seat Cushion Cover for Stationary Recumbent Bicycle Rowing Machine by Tory Richardson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Very good but still compresses after 30 minutes

As an introduction I use this pad on my high end HP Scorpion horizontal trike (with shock absorbers). I ride 30-40 miles every other day to stay in shape. As a result, I'm a 72-year-old, 168-pound rider. FYI, I don't have steel rolls (sorry to say), so younger buttocks may yield better results. I've tried half a dozen different bars; this is the best I've found so far. But it's not perfect. After 30 minutes of driving, I can feel my butt talking to me. In this case, there are two solutions: (a) rotate the mat 180 degrees (without flipping it) or (b) stop and do a 5-minute stretch. You see, the pad shrinks in 30 minutes. If you turn it 180 degrees you sit on the still uncompressed part of the last and you get glute relief and you can ride another 20-30 minutes. But to be honest after an hour of riding I'm definitely ready to take a break and maybe grab a bite of energy (I like the Enduro Bites Fig & Dark Chocolate 10 pack) before getting back on the trike. Compress? I do not know. If yes, please let me know. I'd like to try that. Have fun driving.
