A person who has once mounted a bicycle knows how important an ideal bicycle seat is for a comfortable ride. This is especially true for long trips. In the area of the bicycle saddle, the moving parts of the body are in contact with the vehicle structure. Therefore, when choosing devices in this category, it is necessary to select a saddle for a bicycle of a suitable shape and material of good quality.

An unsuccessful landing of the bicycle saddle will lead to rapid fatigue, the cyclist will flow back, and the pleasure of cycling will go down the drain. An improper design leads to an extra load on the spine, which can lead to serious diseases. That's why people after buying new bicycles are engaged in the selection of seats specifically for themselves. Properly selected saddle for a bicycle will provide comfort during the trip and will not harm health.

Like other bicycle accessories, seats in large quantities are presented in our store. Among them stand out wide and narrow seats made of various materials.

Wide bicycle saddles are suitable for bicycles with a direct and equal vertical landing. As a rule, these are cruisers and choppers. For such models, it is important to have a shock-absorbing structure and softening gaskets made of foam rubber or silicone, since the blows from the broken road fall on the rider’s spine. The disadvantages of such seats include the fact that it is inconvenient for them to overcome climbs, long distances and ride at high speed.

Narrow bicycle seats are designed for sports and long trips. Specialists recommend buying narrow and hard sports and semi-sports saddles, even if you are not a professional athlete and expect to ride in the city. Although outwardly they look less comfortable, during operation such samples prove to be excellent. The devices are ideal for bicycles with an elongated fit, in which the cyclist's body leans forward, his weight is redistributed, the motility of the legs moves, the pelvic area is unloaded. Sitting with this landing is more convenient on a narrow saddle.

The bulk of the sports or semi-sports bike seats are designed specifically for the special equipment of the cyclist. If you want to really actively ride, in the mode of walking, fitness, a tourist trip, it is recommended to use special cycling clothing. For riding in ordinary urban clothing, there are compromise seat options: narrower than ordinary classic ones and with small soft pads.

The material from which the bicycle seat is made also affects its functional qualities. In classic and semi-sports models use silicone and foam paddings, they allow you to ride without special bicycle trunks. Racing saddles for bicycles are made of hard plastic, they are ultra comfortable if you use the right bike clothing. In some expensive models, leather is used, it is good because it is elastic and dampens vibration from rough roads. After a run of 200-300 km. the leather saddle takes the form of a rider's body and becomes very comfortable.
