 Works but Expect Some Discomfort July 11, 2010
J. Fletcher (Northern NJ)
I got this for my Schwinn 113 upright stationary bike. The prior stock seat would cause numbness in the "plumbing area" and lead to fatigue during workouts. The No Pressure Seat does work and really does put much less pressure on the "plumbing areas." I would think of the seat as a wide "U" shape.
The seat initially takes a lot of adjustment in order for it to feel right. No matter how you adjust it, you will experience some dicomfort though but its all about what you prefer. I find that the most stress is on the back of my thighs but its not overwhelming and causes no numbness its just noticable. The seat itself is very easy to install. Just a matter of loosening two nuts.
I would recommend it to anyone who wants to relieve pressure on a stationary bike in the "plumbing areas" but who also realizes that its not perfect and you will experience some discomfort but you will ultimately get used to it.
 Misleading Picture July 2, 2010
CrazyCatLady
This bicycle seat is not as large as the picture lead me to believe. I guess I should have read the description more closely. My order arrived earlier than anticipated, so that was a nice surprise. I haven't installed the seat on my tricycle that I bought on Amazon.com yet, so I'm taking a "wait and see" attitude on how comfortable it is. The seat that came with the trike is very uncomfortable and caused lower back pain so I'm hoping for the best.
 Schwinn No Pressure Seat Is Not Good June 25, 2010

Two seats were purchased. One for an exercise bike and one for a multi-speed road bike each needing more comfort. The Schwinn No Pressure Seat in each case did not perform well and it only took 10 seconds of use to reach this conclusion. It creates a crease line going across each leg where bending over the edge of the seat. Should a recumbent bike be used, then this seat would be suitable. For any normal bicycle (coaster, 10 speed or BMX etc.) where the pedals are below the seat, then this seat is NOT for you!
unpleasant to ride with May 3, 2010
theskeptic (Jersey)
Well, this seat design *does* relieve the pressure on your important plumbing, however, I found it incredibly uncomfortable to ride with. You lose a lot of control, and the pedaling geometry is just wrong. Because optimal cycling position (for power transfer) has your legs almost fully extended, this means you have to sit on the very edge of this seat, putting almost all of your weight on your arms. I find this to be a suboptimal solution for someone who wants to ride hard and also be safe. Hopefully there is another seat on the market that does a better job. I will keep looking...

I BOUGHT THIS AT THE STORE AND COULD NOT GET IT TO WORK FOR ME. COULD NOT PEDDLE ONCE IT WAS ON THE BIKE.
