"Rido delivered what it promised - a painless, smooth, working saddle. Thanks!!!"
"Very impressed by your saddle. A four hour cycle yesterday from West to East London and back through heavy traffic. Found it very comfortable with absolutely no ill effects today.
I will be purchasing another very soon. Well done and congratulations on your excellent product."
M.D. Thames Ditton, Surrey
"Rido: big on Dahon!"

"It is everything you promised"
"Well, I'm happy to inform that I'm very satisfied with my new saddle. It is everything you promised. I use my bike for long distance touring and running errands around town. I've put close to 80 miles on the saddle, including a 40 mile one day tour and I haven't had any pains in my crotch area. As a matter of fact I had stopped riding for a few weeks to allow pain to go away. The pain went away but I didn't dare get on the bike until my Rido saddle arrived. I know my old saddle would've killed me with pain. I jumped back on the bike with the Rido and the pain has stayed away. I'm confident enough of the comfort that I'm planning tours to San Diego and San Francisco from the L.A area - something I would've never dared with the old saddles.
I had tried adjusting my old saddle every way but it kept being painful. I tried a nose-less saddle but that was a terrible experience - how can people pedal with those things? Rido delivered what it promised - a painless, smooth, working saddle. Thanks!!!

"Thank you. I am happy to report that the saddle is performing as expected and I am very satisfied with the purchase. The saddle will be used for commuting on a city bike, with a moderately upright riding posture. The only points I have on improving the saddle would be to make a wider version as well (I have quite wide sit bones and the saddle is a little narrow) and also the weight could be lower, though at this price and level of comfort it will be very hard to improve!I hope the R2 lands soon as I am eager to try it out."

"The saddle is great, thanks. I’ll write some more when I get the chance! Meanwhile, when are you getting black saddles back in stock?"
R.M, Bristol, Avon
"I was somehow expecting something far more technical and elaborate looking. However, when I tried it (RIDO), I was very pleased! It was far more solid than the first impression and my posterior loved it! Oh, the pleasure of getting off the bike and being able to walk away with no pain!! I am 60 years old and I only got the bike because I'm awaiting a hip operation & was told cycling is a good non load bearing exercise, but I was about to give up because of the pain in my butt, which was even worse than my hip joint. Well done!"
R.S, Ramsgate, Kent
"It's THE ONLY SADDLE that FULLY relieves perineal disomfort"
"Can't wait to try the RIDO 2 - when willl it be available? From the press release, it seems like you have addressed the few rough spots in the original design, but there is no doubt that the design works as advertised. It's THE ONLY SADDLE that FULLY relieves perineal disomfort."
J.M, New York, USA
"I've got a racing style Specialized 'Body Geometry' saddle on my triathlon race bike and I've been having a few painful posterior problems in a few of my longer recent races. I have been using one of your Rido saddles on my commuting bike for months now and so yesterday when I was competing in a Half-Ironman triathlon I decided to put the Rido saddle on my race bike.
I'm not entirely convinced that a glow-in-the-dark saddle looked entirely 'right' sat in the transition area, and I was worried that the saddle wouldn't really work in the more agressive riding position. However I'm pleased to report that the saddle was great and the only things that hurt (still hurt!) are my legs, not my nether regions, hence my request for an R2! You also might be interested to hear that I spotted another Rido saddle on a bike racked in the transition at the race, so Rido is definitely getting known!"
N.T, Riding Mill, Northumberland
"Please reserve one R2 saddle for me.
My present Rido has been an absolute marvel, and I look forward to trying the new one."
S.E, Pevensey, East Sussex
"Put me down for one of the new R2 saddles.
I have just returned from 16 days of misery in Scotland: I didn't change to a Rido for the trip...... I paid the price!"
D.P, Southampton, Hampshire
"After buying five of the MkI saddles I was interested to read about the MkII version.
I am very happy with the comfort of the MkI, so will be interested to try the MkII. My first impression of the appearance is that it has gone 'up market'!"
Dr A.S, Tamworth, Staffordshire
"I will reserve an R2 please.
I have enjoyed my cycling more after the purchase of the first saddle and now getting decent mileages again!"
C.C, Aberlour, Moray, Scotland
"Please send me an R2 saddle as soon as they're available.
I really like the original on my road bike."
W.M, Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada
"Also, I added the Rido ergonomic saddle which is the most comfy saddle I have ridden and I bought 3 just in case I can never buy another when I get a new bike!"
