Ergonomic Bicycle Seats

The anatomy of women is very different from men. (This seems like a no brainer to most of us.) However, it’s surprising to see how many women pick saddles that are not designed with their ergonomic comfort in mind.

Fi’Zi:k, an exciting new ergonomic brand in the world of bicycle saddles, has taken the special needs of women to heart and created the Vitesse. This ergonomic bicycle seat is designed with a woman’s anatomy in mind. You’ll find even more to love in cycling with this saddle.fizik_vitess_hp_wing_flex_womens_bike_saddle_pink__51953_thumb

Women Can Ride with Ease on Vitesse Ergonomic Bicycle Seats

Built for both the serious and casual cyclist in mind, Vitesse seats were made for road cycling and cross country performance. With its wide rear platform and a delicately dipped shape, pressure is taken off of the more sensitive parts of your anatomy. Made with carbon reinforcement, these are strong seats that will not warp over time, even with heavy use. Its multi-thickness padding system allows for maximum comfort, even on the longest of rides.

The extended Y-shaped back of these seats with Fi’Zi:k’s patented Royal Gel padding help to reduce road fatigue and soreness. The Nytek cover is a lighter material than leather but just as durable. It’s water-resistant for all-weather use and can be washed. Shop for your new saddle today and keep the Vitesse in mind.

Bike Seats

Bike Seats

What makes for an exhilarating bike ride? You may have the best tires on your bike. You may have equipped yourself with the best gear from head to toe. But if your seat isn’t comfortable, you’ll have the worst ride of your life.

Finding the bike seat that’s right for your shape among all the bike seats available can be a daunting task. It really comes down to the kind of riding you do and your personal preferences. It’s a great idea to get a little expert advice before you make a purchase.

Bike Seats for Every Shape

First, think about the material you’d prefer for your bike seat. Seats are made of many different materials. Do you prefer more or less padding when you ride? Some seats will conform to your anatomy over time, while others will remain firm and retain their shape for years to come. If you like a firmer ride, look for a seat with less padding. Gel seats offer the most comfort for those who ride for hours at a time or prefer more cushioning. But there’s more to choosing the right seat than knowing what kind of bicyclist you are.Brooks B17 S Standard Leather Bicycle Saddle Black TN

You need to know a little bit about your own anatomy to pick the right seat. Choose from seats that are the right width and shape. The bumps in the back of the seat or saddle should match the shape and position of your pelvis. This means that women’s seats should be much wider than men’s. Give us a call at BicycleEverything.com at 888-222-9887 and let us help you pick from our selection of bike seats to ensure a safe, comfortable ride.
