Reviewers confirm the noseless ECD Seat reduces pain and numbness

The health professionals

"Each year I see many people who have suffered from prolonged riding on conventional seats causing them discomfort and sometimes leading to health problems. What I like about this seat is that it has been ergonomically designed to enable the cyclist to sit more naturally. This is a breakthrough in comfort design for cyclists."
Dr. J R W Harris, Consultant GU Medicine at St Mary’s Hospital, London.

“This seat is an excellent new design which will enable a much more comfortable ride.”
Mr Christopher Chan BSc (Hons) FRCS, PHD, Surgeon. St Barts Hospital, London NHS Trust.

“I have treated the problems - and personally experienced the discomfort - of sitting on conventional bicycle seats due to the pressure they exert in an uneven pattern, particularly from the ‘nose’ at the front. The ECD Seat provides a new more comfortable way to cycle, whether over a short or long distance and allows the cyclist to sit properly with their weight on the sit bones, freeing them to adopt a healthy posture.”

The fitness professionals

“I cycle regularly and recently completed an ‘Iron-Man’ competition involving a 180km bicycle ride which left me in some discomfort. In hindsight, I would have loved to have used the ECD Seat for that race as it would have been far more comfortable. I believe the ECD Seat is a brilliant invention that will greatly help cyclists to have a more comfortable ride. After recommending them to some of my clients they have already bought two and another two as gifts!”

Zambian heroics - and all in a good cause

Three London-based lawyers took on a 500km ride across Zambia in May this year, raising some £80,000 for the African Revival charity.

We donated ECD Seats to the team for the ride: here's what Nigel Boardman had to say at the end of it all:

"On the trip three of us used the saddle. My nephew, James, is a fit 26 year-old, ex-army, and was called in to the challenge only a fortnight before the the start, because someone had to drop out with a broken leg. He did not have time to toughen up his bottom, and the saddle made it possible for him to complete the trip without discomfort. Glen, my partner at Slaughter and May, used a conventional saddle to begin with, but was in severe discomfort after a few days, and was only able to finish the ride by switching to the ECD Seat. I would definitely have dropped out of the 500 km trip across Zambia myself, were it not for the ECD Seat, which I found removed all the discomforts from that part of the body. It is a fantastic innovation: I would strongly recommend it to anyone."
