How to make your bike seat feel comfort?

It is important to adjust the bicycle seat position with your posture. Not everyone has the same formula, so some people must have a special formula which is suitable only for them. You can start by adjusting the most ideal height of the bike seat, so you feel fit in when your knees bent at a top lap and foot position while in the lower rounds. When the foot on the bottom lap, legs should not really straight, knees slightly bent should be felt more comfortable. And also consider when you hold the bike when stopped, so your feet can be planted on the ground easily.

After you set the height of a bicycle seat, the next step is to adjust the chair based on the pivot point. Try to slide forward or backward, this is to find the right spot for your sit-bones. Mistakes here will cause you get sore and tired quickly, and then you will lose the spirit. Tips for this, use a gel bike seat and soft elastic at the back, so that your sit-bones will not effort to hold the weight of your body. Furthermore, it is important to manage the front of the saddle up or down. Mistakes here can make the groin pain and discomfort on your genital.

Try a few settings on your bike seat, and then make a trip for several kilometers. Feel it, whether the settings you’ve done really has to make sense of comfort. However, do not survive in the same position for long, it can cause the blood can’t flow into the depressed area. Occasionally, you can pedal in a stood way for a moment.

Way of setting above can be apply for other type of bikes. You may adjust the seat for your mountain bike, terry bike, or your dirt bike. Children are also very pleased to cycling, give the appropriate size of the saddle, as well as setting the right bicycle seat for children, will eliminate the pain complaints.

The exercise bike seats

There are also special seats for indoor exercise bikes. This includes both recumbent and upright bikes for spinning classes. With a recumbent exercise bike, is also important to ensure appropriate support your back properly. Recumbent bike will usually have a seat with more padding than an upright bike. For spin class, you want the seat is relatively small. You will be pedaling fast and against the resistance, so you do not want to have a big chair that gets in the way of moving your feet or the transition from sitting to standing, which is often done quickly.

If you’re going to spend so much time riding a bike, whether indoor or outdoor, you need to invest in a good seat. The right bike seats can make all the difference in the comfort of your journey.
