Ten seconds riding was all it took to know this was the comfortable bicycle seat I'd been searching for!  Declaring any bike seat comfortable is a subjective call, I know, yet what I can tell you is this hornless ergonomic bicycle seat completely relieves groin area (perineum) pressure and for me, that translates to comfort. Critically, there is no horn to torment the groin, or restrict blood flow and the sit bones (ischial tuberosity) are likewise pampered with a flat, firm comfort that's of adjustable width; areas of high concern for a comfortable, non-injurious bike seat. Extensively designed and re-designed backed by over 10 years of sales - 20,000 seats sold - and customer feedback, this is the very latest design and arguably the most comfortable. Available in 2 models depending on body weight and is uncomplicated, easy  ...installation. Seat padding consists of two high density foam pads, that are inwardly / outwardly adjustable for varying width. I recommend this bike seat for people seeking a true, hornless bike,are serious about fitness, and understand the dynamics of exercise.

Cycling avidly for 20 years, uncomfortable, horned bicycle seats have been a source of great discomfort for me. This bike seat solves the problem !Far more than merely a comfortable bicycle seat, this hornless bike saddle rescues delicate nerves and arteries of the perineum region from injury often caused by horned bike seats. This ergonomic bicycle seat eliminates perineum pressure, transferring body weight instead to the ischium, or "sit bones". The absence of a horn means absolutely no interference; like nothing you've experienced. Split seats, double nose split seats, gel seats and the like are not the answer and instead considered to exacerbate problems. Research has established that for make and female groin area safety, only noseless bike seats specifically designed for ischium comfort are effective.

The ingenious Spongy Wonder Bike seat has a U.S. patented design that, unlike other "hornless" bicycle seats which merely incorporate a modified horn (the looped rail frame of a traditional bike seat) utterly eliminates the looped frame (horn) so there's nothing but air space beneath the groin area and no rail(s) to interfere with thighs or hamstrings! You'll pedal naturally, freely and comfortably with more positive transfer of energy. The website chronicprostatitis.com recommends this seat for men with prostatitis.

Testimonial

Greg:
After having a radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer and an implant to regain continence, it became impractical for me to ride a bike with a conventional seat. However, with my MK10A bike seat I can thoroughly enjoy riding my bike again without restirctions.
Thanks.

Aesthetically pleasing,the smooth, stainless steel rod exudes a high-tech,appearance. The twin, neoprene seat pads adhere to lazer cut, stainless steel bases which are inwardly and outwardly adjustable in width, from 8.25 in. (20 cm.) to 10 in. (25 cm.). Maximum width is 11.25 in. (28 cm.).

Which model should you buy ? Visually the seats are virtually identical. The manufacturer, Spongy Wonder Inc., advise that there are weight limitations for the seats: The MK10A and MK10B both have the same frame, 5/16th of an inch stainless steel, weigh 550 grams, Seat pads for the MK10B, for riders under 180 lbs., seat pads are 3.50 in. wide x 3.50 in. long and 1 in. thick - intended for riders up to 180 lbs. MK10Aweighs 550 grams and pads are 3.75 in. wide x 4.25 in. long and 1 in. thick - suited for heavier riders weighing over 180 lbs.

These hornless bike saddles are not suited for trail riding, trick riding or downhilling, rather they are for use with regular road bicycles on paved roads.

This hornless bike seat will affix to a micro-adjustable seat clamp, found on virtually all modern bicycles. Children's' bicycles, high end and specialized bicycles may not have the usual micro-adjustable seat clamp. If required, a micro-adjustable seat post and clamp can be purchased at most any bicycle shop.

 

Comfortable? this saddle is very unique and a key feature is the specialized foam pads which have been refined for nearly two decades to what they are today. The seat, in my opinion, is a pleasure to ride and enormously more comfortable than a traditional, horned bike seat. Body weight is transferred from the groin to the ischium (sit bones). The function of this seat is to shift the pressure point of body weight from the delicate groin area to the more robust buttocks (sit bones) and you may experience a short period of sore bum, until your muscles adapt.

The seat installs with ease. Once installed a simple height adjustment to the seat post and handle bars  adapted the bike seat to my liking in about 5 minutes. Nothing to it, just take a few necessary tools with you on your first ride so you can set things up. And of course, read the instructions included with your seat.
