Reddit reviews Zacro Gel Bike Seat Cover- BS031 Extra Soft Gel Bicycle Seat - Bike Saddle Cushion with Water&Dust Resistant Cover (Black)

I recently got this one: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01H71AZ36/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1


it fits fine, doesn't move around or anything. Not the greatest but MUCH better than without.

I haven’t brought one to OTF (don’t really use the bike) but I do it for spinning class. You can get a fairly cheap one on amazon. I say go for it.

This is the one I have ($10)

The seat has a Rock Shox Reverb Stealth dropper on it, but I found the original seat to be WAY too hard, so I slapped a gel cover on it:

Makes a world of difference.

Thank you for the response! Is there a specific dimension size for the seat replacement? For example, this seat https://www.amazon.com/Zacro-Gel-Bike-Seat-Resistant/dp/B01H71AZ36/ref=pd_lpo_468_bs_t_2?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=YXHD3BQSZEVH72TYEC3B seems like what I'm looking for. Will this work?

Another idea for a game I'd love to see is something similar to Zombies, Run! where you have a base and need to travel around your area to find supplies and survivors. Every so often, you'll be chased by zombies (that somehow run fast enough to catch up to you) and you have to lose them based on the cycling challenge level you're at. Everyone starts with slow zombies but the bigger your base gets then the harder zombies come out. Open world would be awesome so you have the sense of freedom to explore.

Upgrading the bike will let you drop items behind you to slow down the zombies. Wheel upgrades for different terrains, etc.

Here's a good seat that only cost $9.99:

It’s kind of dorky but this seat cover works for me

Downside is if you ride it in gym shorts it will stink forever. Maybe there’s a brand that uses better material to avoid that

Like other rider have mentioned it probably your position on the saddle.
But I’ve also very early on purchased a seat cover and padded shorts. I ride daily and it makes a difference during longer rides.

A few things here and I'm larger and I ride a road racing bicycle made by Giant, a huge bicycle manufacturer.

​

Besides the seat, I've bought and used an additional padding that goes on over the seat and it has a cover that ties down below and around the seat so it's a pad on top of the bicycle seat.

​

They are bike seat covers/cushions and there are tons of them on the market to purchase.

​

Then, one should buy riding shorts that have gel padding below one's privates.

​

Now, all of this helps but it doesn't eliminate all issues and one's privates are still there and they go somewhere.

​

I ride a lot, I rode 3,500 miles last year, though many ride much more I know. My issue is that my seat cover/cushion is good, not costly but I wear through it, like one gets holes in their jeans and underwear.

​

Guys I ride with ride like 7.500 miles per year and they use the same seat cushion and they've had the same cushion for the past 3 years and it's still perfect. At around 1,800 to 2,000 miles, the hole gets too big on the front of my cover/cushion due to my privates being there as I ride and move my legs up and down while peddling. So, I have to buy seat cushions a lot as one won't make it a season for me and if I ride a bit more than 3,500 miles this year I'll most likely go through two seat cushions this season.

​

Here is but one example of a seat cushion, with gel on Amazon.

​

Mine will fray and then come apart and the front of my bicycle seat is then exposed as the cover is no longer over or covering my seat.

​

Our stuff, our privates are there and when one's legs go up and down, the privates still are on and move and rub against the top of the seat, though with the cushioned riding shorts and the cushion on top of the seat, it's manageable in terms of riding.
