Choosing the right bicycle saddle - seat with best fit & least discomfort

We show you how to select the best bicycle saddle, i.e. seat, on your road bike, mountain bike or trail bike to give you the most comfort and best fit while bicycling. Saddle selection depends on your anatomy and your position on the bike. Your ideal saddle width depends on the width of your "sit bones" which we show you how to measure this width. Your position on the bike is important in that if you have to stretch out and rotate the hips excessively to reach the handlebars, you will put pressure on crucial nerves and arteries resulting in pain, discomfort and even dysfunction while cycling. Fore aft position on the saddle will also affect comfort. The sit bones should be positioned over the rear soft spot of the saddle. Most of today's saddles come with a cut out to relieve pressure on the prudential nerves and arteries.
