I think I'm going to stick with the tractor seat on mine. Those skinny seats are pretty uncomfortable if you're not the pedaling type.
After pedal riding my mountain bike for not more than 30 seconds with one of those horrendously skinny and massively uncomfortable seats, I went back to the bicycle store and asked a sales person to direct me to the most comfortable bike seat; shaped like the spine of a thickly fleeced sheep, with all the comfort of sitting on a thickly fleeced sheep.
She looked at me in horror and said that concept of comfort was sacrilege to the professional image of cycling, and i should reconsider my actions.
I begged her to show me the most comfortable bicycle seat, because i didn't give a damn about debasing the image of spandex clad cyclists riding their super flimsy and woefully uncomfortable bicycles.
Her next defense was that an overly comfortable sheep,,, i mean seat, would not encourage you to stand out of the saddle and push yourself harder to achieve greater levels of fitness and competitiveness.
My response was simple - my bike has an engine, so give me a comfortable sheep, i mean seat.
I want to enjoy the cycling experience and i have no interest in putting my derriere though unimaginable torture when sitting on a bicycle seat.
She was completely gobsmacked when i mentioned bicycle and engine in the same sentence, and it was almost like those words incarnated the devil into her body, because her response and action was nothing short of throwing me out of the shop with a level of hostility and derision that i've never previously seen or experienced by a shop staff member.
Following that harrowing experience, my reseach lead me to a wide comfortable Gel-Seat with springs, which was further bolstered in the comfort stakes, using a
Cane Creek Thudbuster LT seat post, using the optional extra soft and comfy elastomer springs.
