In the video, a urologist demonstrates how arteries are compressed between the pelvis and the surface of conventional bike saddles. If you don't have a Flash player, you can install it free here: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
Fitting & Suitability
Easyseat II are comfortable bicycle seats, equally suitable for men and women. Easyseats are designed for normal cycling on roads and cycle tracks, and can be fitted to any bike with a level or raised hand position, including hybrids, folding, cruisers, roadsters, and city models. For long distances or over rough terrain we suggest the Hobson Pro-Hub X2 seat, also available.
Seat angle and position are adjusted on the seat post in the same way as conventional saddles. The width of the seat can be adjusted for comfort by up to 3cm with a single adjustment dial.
An Easyseat can be fitted to a stationary exercise bike, if the bike has an attachment for standard bicycle seat rails.
Base Construction
The base is manufactured in strong nylon and glass composite, and the stainless steel support rails allow conventional attachment to any seatpost.
Seatpad Construction
The dual seatpads have a generous hi-density foam and gel padding, and weatherproof nu-leather covers.
Seatpads are supported by elastomers, allowing independently controlled tilts of the seatpads (approx. 7o) with each downstroke for improved ergonomics and reduced friction. The use of adjustable double seatpads is a significant innovation beyond "split bike seats".
Medical
Many people suffer discomfort or pain from ‘normal’ bicycle saddles, even ones with cut-outs or gel pads. Hobson Seats are specifically designed to avoid pressure on the perineum (groin), as explained in detail in "Features". The horn or nose of conventional saddles can constrict the penile arteries and cause pain due to the resulting local high blood pressure in the arteries, while other areas suffer from low blood supply. Hobson Seats can also remove pain in the coccyx or tailbone (coccydynia), and the prostate, which can be a sensitive area after an operation.
The potential outcome of riding on traditional bike seats can be summarised as reduced circulation in the penile area, and damage to arteries and nerves in the Alcock's Canals (also known as Pudendal Canals), leading to conditions such as Bicycle Seat Neuropathy, Alcock's Canal Syndrome, Pudendal Neuralgia, Pudendal Nerve Entrapment, and Erectile Dysfunction.
Changing to a Hobson Seat
Hobson Seats employ a beneficial rider support system - via the sit bones rather than the crotch. This can take a little time to get used to. The tissues around the sit bones may need to adjust until the final comfortable state is achieved, as mentioned in the instructions supplied.
One customer said: " No more sitting on a cheese cutter for me !!".
Hobson's recommended rider weight is up to 160Kg (350lbs). If you wish to use the seat with a rider weight above this, please contact Bikeco first.
