We discuss pelvic anatomy and the differences between men and women and how that relates to selecting a bicycle saddle. We also talk about the dangers of compressing arteries and nerves and how poor saddle selection or position on the bike can lead to comfort problems and serious medical issues.

thank you Great explaination

Thanks

Extremely informative and clearly presented. I suffer from every possible condition on the bike from numbness to boils and have found no relief regardless of who fits me to my bike. I've gone through so much $$$ trying to find the right seat and position. I just might investigate your saddle. Sounds interesting.

Fantastic video, thank you! I'll definitely be giving the 'Kontact saddle' a look

very good video

can i use a women saddle? the comfort will be the same?

What do you think about cramps,would be possible due to a bad fitting position on the bike?

very good video.

very informative.
Thanks

Simon You should follow the link in the video description and ask them if they can ship to the UK or if they have them available

Anyone here able to find this saddle in the uk

byciclelab :P nice love it very interesting, impossible to get lack of content :) keep it up

Great video. When is the next one? Thank you!

Great information! Not only do you provide great visuals, but your video seems to be the only one on the entire web which demonstrates how a cyclist's pelvis should rest in a saddle.

I loved the vidseo, it is a very inportant subject.

I like his stare to the camera following the thanks at 4:22 Josh is very serious about his work in that field : )

This video is great, it is excactly what happent to me. I was ridding on a saddle that was too narrow for my pelvis and got injured because of it. I had to quit cycling for 8 months and still I don't feel quite right.What really botherts me is that it's not the saddle to blame for but ignorance, mine & the people who own bike shops and they are not abble to give you the right advice on saddle and bike fitting. I wish I could forward this to all the cyclists on the planet.

EXCELLENT explanation of saddle fit issues! Having the model, with speaker wires, really helps me understand how the body contacts the saddle, and how the saddle needs to accommodate that physiology. Can't wait to view their other vids.

Informative thanks. Never noticed any discomfort myself (I`m male), but something to think about.
