wet butt!

On: 2010-03-03

Well, it is a comfortable bike seat...but it soaks up water like a sponge! Not good if you are biking in the rain, that is for sure! It takes a while to dry out, so be prepared for this task if you get it wet.

Comfort and Value

On: 2009-10-01

Ive just started to ride a bicycle again for exercise and realized the reason I couldnt ride very long was the seat was just too uncomfortable, so I shopped and this is what I bought, and couldnt be happier. Now I can ride until the rest of my body cant take it.

Much better

I bought these to replace seats that came with bikes I purchased. The difference is like night and day. WAY more comfortable. The old seat pretty much had me in pain within 15 minutes of riding. I rode on this seat for over six miles with no problems.

A Comfortable Seat!

On: 2009-08-23

Thanks to a permanently detached tailbone, I cannot ride bikes equipted with regular seats. This is my second Cloud 9 seat: the last was narrower, with the lycra cover. As I ride to do all of my errands as well as for fun, comfort and durability are both key. This seat is wider than the regular ones, which is better for me on long runs. The leather-like cover promises longer wear as well. If you suffer discomfort on regular bike seats, the deep, vented groove will be a revelation. In concert with the gel padding and shock absorbers, this seat is heaven on long rides.
Be aware, it is not designed to be used with an underseat bag. I was able to mount my underseat bag only after making some minor modifications.

best seat ever

I received my seat 4 days after purchasing. Setup was easy may have to take clamp off seat depending on the bar setup of your bike, but pretty easy to install. Seat is very comfortable, rode 20 miles with no problem.

It's Like You're Sitting On A Cloud

On: 2009-06-25

Well, it may not be exactly like you are sitting on a cloud but I imagine its pretty darn close. I bought the bike and tried the original seat one time. It was everything I had come to hate about bicycle seats. Painful and left me numb. I ordered the Cloud 9 and two days later it arrived. I but it on and it was close but not perfect. I dropped the nose of the seat down two notches to take the pressure off the front and it has been perfect ever since. I can ride everyday and there are no painful after effects. As a person who has had back surgery, its just what I needed to be able to try to get back to riding once again.

Great seat

I bought this seat to replace the original on my airdyne exercise bike. I must say that this seat is most comfortable. It takes a lot of the pressure off your tail bone. It is quality constructed, and should last a long time.

What a relief!

Sunlite Cloud-9 Bicycle Suspension Comfort Saddle, Cruiser Select
I recently purchased a bike just for exercise and leisure riding. The seat on the bike left my rear hurting. I purchased the Cloud-9 Comfort Saddle and what a difference. The seat is extremely comfortable. It was delivered within a few days and I couldnt be happier.

It really works

On: 2009-01-31

This seat really does the job. The numbness is gone. Its exceptionally comfortable. With all the gel it contains, it will probably be a bit heavier than the seat that came with the bike, but its by far worth the weight. The smooth cover appears to be more durable than others.

It comes with the standard thick wire mounting capability, along with a bracket to slide onto a bike tube. Some bikes use an integrated bracket welded to a tube to save weight, so youll discard their bracket and use the one that came with the bike.

It takes only a few minutes to remove your old seat and install this one. I was expecting problems on a 20 year old mountain bike that has been through the mud of the out back, expecting all the bolts would have been rusted, but removal of the old seat and installation of this one was effortless.

Its really comfortable, and Im glad I bought it.

cloud nine

Cloud nine is very appropiate for this saddle. I got it for a friend and he loves it. So I bought one for myself.

Excellent Seat!!!

On: 2008-12-12

Great price! Shipped same day ordered. Received in perfect condition, 4 days early. Seat is as described; a well made sturdy seat. It is much, much more confortable than my old seat. Looks good and sporty on my bike. Very easy to install. I can ride much longer and further with less discomfort. TJ in Florida

Nice, wide, soft comfortable.

I had purchased a Schwinn Sierra after no riding a bike for 35 years the bike seat was terrible so I shopped until I was tired of looking, my bike has the micro adjust seat post where rails connect to the post, this comes with an adapter for the simple post, remove this and mount the seat to the rails and you are in business, except the BMX as I believe their rails are a 7mm or at least different but do not fret about mounting as this fits both the pipe type of post and the post that accepts the rails.

I wanted something wide as I am 5 feet 6 in at 210 pounds with a 28 inseam, this seat is plenty wide and comfortable, it is not too wide between the legs as I feared, it has the rubber bumper type of shocks that in my opinion better than springs as with limited experience the springs allow your butt to wobble, a bobble head butt ... not with this.

A customer with the name of Robert gave a review of a different Cloud 9 saddle, it was good and he provided pictures and it was evident that he was a serious rider not someone with health issues looking to ride and look so I added 2 inches to the size he liked and did good by ordering the same seat only 2 inches wider, thank you Robert, Amazon and Niagara.

Very comfy

As stated by the other reviewer, this seat is great for the sensitive area for guys. Its gel helps out on bumps. The only reason I stopped in the past was due to that pain/ feeling guys get on standard seats. I only stopped on this seat the other day because Im out of shape (8 months + without riding). My quads began to hurt bad, not to mention biking in the cold isnt great for breathing. Buy the seat, its great.

Super Comfortable Saddle!!!

This is a GREAT seat, I bought it to replace my stock seat (specialized comfort seat) It is nice and soft, wide and I love the hole, it keeps the sensitve area pain free and cool. I have tried several saddles and this is the best one!!!
