Oversized bike seat

How to improve exercise bike efficiencyThe 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.
