I am into my second Hybrid with flat bars but im in the saddle for long rides of about 3 hours so I thought I should go for a drop handle bars adventure/endurance bike. Or do i go for a higher spec better Hybrid bike with flat bars.

I am quite old, but very fit ,but i do get aching shoulders and aching back ( not necessarily from my biking but is an age thing!!)

So any other advice would be great

Comment on Assault Bike vs Airdyne – Which is the Best Airbike to buy? by Linda Brown https://www.bostonbikes.org/advice/assault-airbike-classic-vs-schwinn-airdyne-pro/#comment-33 Fri, 12 Feb 2021 17:04:22 +0000 https://www.bostonbikes.org/?page_id=314#comment-33 Thank you for a very good article. I have two questions: 1) Which seat is the more comfortable? I have been on the assault bike and found the seat to be rather uncomfortable but I haven’t been on the airdyne. And 2) My husband would like to be able to watch his ipad while riding. Which bike would better accommodate this?
Thank you!

Comment on 7 Best Peloton Bike Seats – Most Comfortable Peloton Seat Cushions by Daniel White https://www.bostonbikes.org/advice/buyers-guides/best-peloton-bike-seats/#comment-25 Mon, 28 Dec 2020 22:26:20 +0000 https://www.bostonbikes.org/?page_id=749#comment-25 In reply to Roni.

Hi Roni,

For crotch pain, I’d strongly recommend getting a crotchless bike seat like this one that I found very comfortable to use. Or you can go with the Hobson EasySeat II .

However, crotchless seats change how the bikes feel but I’d assume that you would welcome the comfort over the negligible difference in the experience that you’ll get.

Give either one a shot and let me know how it goes for you!

I cannot ride my new Peleton bike because of crotch pain not sit bone pain. I’m not sure which seat is appropriate for a senior woman. I could use some guidance. Ty
