Hobson Original Easy Seat really is comfortable
It took about 12 adjustments with this quite unusually designed seat to get it to work for me. I also had to raise the handlebars and change the seat height. But now that it is set, I like it. It offers a much more comfortable ride. A little more padding might make it better and I believe that the newer Easy Seat II is more padded. It seems as if all bike seats should have this design. Makes much more sense.

Wear a jock!
I did not like this saddle. I couldn't find a way to be comfortable when riding with this seat. Also, better wear a jock. When you go over bumps it feels like they might fall off!

Fantastic Bike Seat
The people who don't like this seat probably didn't adjust it properly.
I'm 56 and ride a mountain bike on paved trails intermittently for 25 mile bursts of exercise and have done so for years. I always have pain due to pressure points and to friction on my thighs. UNTIL NOW!
I just got an original Easyseat and spent some time adjusting it to remove the pressures noted by some other riders. I now like it tilted quite a bit forward and high, which leaves my legs extended properly on the full downstroke and places my body "balanced" on the seat rather than "sitting" upright.
The seat is unusual in that it feels as if I am not anchored very firmly. But this was easy to get used to because I am not a (favorite perjoritive term) who rejects good ideas just because they are weird.
I then rode 30 miles and totally exhausted my legs, which hadn't ridden a bike in 4 months. (I moved states, sold my old bike and have been running instead.)
I had NO PAIN and NO AFTEREffects! It felt as if I had not even been on a bike ride. I returned after 2 1/2 hours riding in 85 deg. morning sun in Spokane and immediately went on an hour long power-walk with my wife.
I expect that different people will prefer different versions of the Easyseat. Version 2 supposedly favors a more upright posture. The even newer "horned" split seat by Hobson probably gives the best of both worlds, although I prefer no rubbing on the thighs and don't want to wear bike shorts.
I recommend the original, but riders should expect to try out many adjustments and to "get used to it".
