A spin bike saddle may be a little uncomfortable the first time you jump on depending on the seat shape and padding. Discomfort will most likely disappear as you get used to your seat. Otherwise, you may need to make adjustments to your seat and riding position. A firmer and longer saddle are preferred by riders opting for intense and longer riding sessions as these seats are easier to lift out of and reduce chaffing. Whereas, a wider padded saddle is more suited for slower seated sessions as you have more comfort on your behind. As a first-time rider you may be more likely to sit further back into the seat which can cause discomfort, sitting closer to the nose will provide more room for your thighs. Our spin bike seats are comfort oriented and remain slim enough to reduce chaffing. Some models feature a centre perineal cut out for greater air flow and breathability during long rides.
