Oversized bike seat
The exercise
bike I've been riding had one major flaw. The seat was old with
very little padding.
I was pleasantly surprised by
this Schwinn over sized seat
for 20 dollars.
A proper seat makes it easier
for me to get past that 20 minute mark and eliminates the numbness
that sometimes lingered a few minutes after some rigorous riding.

Comiserating!
To put it delicately, my husband has encountered the same numbness after riding on a stiff seat. It doesn't always go away after just a few minutes, so it's good that you went for the upgrade.
