poor seatNovember 4, 2008 Can't get comfortable with this seat. Adjusted the seat in many positions, and it either hurts or uncomfortable, the seat moves around when riding, not safe.
FavorableOctober 29, 2008 I really like this seat. It took about three attempts to get it adjusted correctly. It sure is better than the narrow seat that came on my bike. With the original seat I could only ride for about 10 minutes. Now I can ride until my leg muscles are sore.
Works great for me on 3 bikesSeptember 23, 2008 I bought my first Hobson easy-seat a couple years ago. I had been having problems with numbness and pain in the groin area for hours after riding more than a few miles. I tried the "tractor seat" wide padded seats available at Target and other stores selling bike stuff and found my [...] "walking" itself off the front of the seat as I pedalled along; I was continually (every few pedal strokes) having to scoot back into position onto the broad seat, which was not only annoying but additionally tiring. The "easy-seat", with its "wobbling" left and right cheek-seats, helps avoid this. I liked mine so much I ordered a second Hobson seat for my other bike, a mountain bike, but it got sidetracked because my wife was also uncomfortable on her standard crotch-killer seat and wanted to try my newly ordered Hobson easy-seat "just to see how it worked." She loved it so much she refused to let me take it back off her bike, so I now have to order a third unit for my mountain bike to avoid having to trade the one I have back and forth between 2 bicycles. I ride my bike 24 to 30 miles daily, 12 to 15 miles to work and back depending on my route. I still experience shoulder and wrist pain on rides of more than a few miles but I can't blame that on the Hobson seat. Obviously some people prefer groin pain instead of using these seats, but my wife and I sure think they're great. I'm a little fearful of the newer Hobson split-seats since they appear to be trying to be a more "normal" seat with a nose on the seat that looks like it might be a crotch crusher on long rides. Will look for reviews on those.....
Hobson Original Easy Seat really is comfortableAugust 31, 2008 It took about 12 adjustments with this quite unusually designed seat to get it to work for me. I also had to raise the handlebars and change the seat height. But now that it is set, I like it. It offers a much more comfortable ride. A little more padding might make it better and I believe that the newer Easy Seat II is more padded. It seems as if all bike seats should have this design. Makes much more sense.
Wear a jock!August 29, 2008 I did not like this saddle. I couldn't find a way to be comfortable when riding with this seat. Also, better wear a jock. When you go over bumps it feels like they might fall off!
