Type of review

Very comfortable bike seat. My daughter tried it when she wanted to go to college. and in principle would not return it (it was so convenient). So I let her. Now I have to order another saddle. Planet bike saddles seem to be worth the price paid. Very good, overall good wearing comfort. and yes it still hurts me but it seems better than the cloud9 saddle i ordered for my wife.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Can be retrofitted

Great, once I set it up correctly it was the key

At first I wasn't sure I would like it. It was uncomfortable and just plain wrong. It seemed to me that it was difficult for me to find the right balance when driving. But after a few adjustments I really like it, it really takes the pressure off. I think that's the seat you really need to set up just right for you. It's a lot more comfortable now than the Avenir seat I had before, which only had a decent groove. tail light or not. :) Something I often forgot.) I recommend.

Pros
  • Pretty impressive
Cons
  • Some cons

Seat Cruisers Only, Complete Upright Bikes.

Me: Male, 6', 240 lbs. Bike: Raleigh Redux 1 (Hybrid). Usage: City trips, 12 miles per day. I had two issues with this seat: 1) Seat back: The gel pads are set too wide for comfort. This seat made me realize that wider is not always better. You can read more about sit bones online. 2) Front seat: nose twice as wide, seat cannot be adjusted comfortably. The nose always seems to get in the way. What worked for me: Planet Bike ARS Anatomic Relief Men's Bike Saddle. This solved both the aboveโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Definitely bad product

Really comfortable saddle for my hybrid bike

This is the 12th saddle I've tried on my 2013 Raleigh Misceo 2.0 and the only one I've enjoyed riding. Prostatitis or other prostate problems are no fun at all. I used to have two mountain bikes and their stock saddles were never a problem despite being the cheapest saddles on the market. But then I got a new hybrid bike and I got numbness in a sensitive area even days after a 10 mile ride. Then I realized that my saddle problem was mostly due to the handlebars being pushed forward and I had to

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Not the best

This solved my problem

TMI Warning! For the past 10 years of cycling I have had hemorrhoids and it has been very painful. I used a larger saddle with good springs and a thick soft gel pad. I ride a Trek road bike with fat tires. I decided to try this saddle as it claims to put your weight on your tailbone and not on "soft tissue". I was impressed with the quality when the box arrived. It wasn't too big and heavy like I feared - it's a bit smaller and lighter than the big seat I had on my trek. When I sat on it forโ€ฆ

  • Sturdy construction

About the most comfortable thing I've tried!

Well, I ride a mountain bike and I ride my mountain bike to the mountain bike park near me. The seat that came with my Trek was a joke. Every "comfortable" saddle I've tried didn't seem much more comfortable than the stock MTB seat. This chair is the most comfortable chair I have ever tried. Really great just for commuting but when single track I rarely sit in my seat but what little I do was comfortable and didn't get in my way. I love that it has a short nose that allows me to lean forward to

  • New

  • Minor problems

Perfect seat for weightless sausages

I've been using 3 of these seats on 3 different bikes for the last 6 months and can say it's the best seat for very heavy (or fat) people. I started riding at 278 pounds, and now I weigh 254 (no dieting, just fat burning power). I can now ride my road bike for almost 3 hours with no discomfort in all areas that come into contact with the saddle (buttocks and testicles in particular). any Italian leather seat, so I hope this Planet Bike ARS seat lasts long enough that I can achieve my goal ofโ€ฆ

  • Easy to use

  • Negative experience

Almost Perfect (for me - your mileage may vary)

I'm an older - well, fairly old - guy who does 20-25 miles 3 or 4 days a week. Raleigh hybrid bike, mostly paved bike paths and roads, but also some off-road trails. I had irritation in my lower body and pain in my sit bones. I tried wide soft seats but they increased irritation and caused moisture build-up. I've tried narrow seats and they solved the chafing and sweating problem but caused numbness. Padded in all the right places, this seat is wide enough to provide support. I really like theโ€ฆ

  • Decent performance
