"Fantastic, absolutely brilliant. Thank you! Used to only be able to do 15 miles max. before soreness was too much to bear. Can now do 30 miles without even noticing! Thank you!"

"RIDO-CYCLE SADDLES: I have purchased to date two of these seats. I think the company is based in England and they give me good dependable service. The seat is completely different than any other I have tried but seems to work well. It is not a soft comfy type of seat - it just seems to be designed in such a way as to prevent pain but no real cushy type comfort. I like them and would or will buy more from them.
I am putting them at the top of the list because this seat seems to me to work well and does what the inventor says it will do. It is a low cost light weight well designed item."

"This is the second saddle I've ordered. Did 35 miles yesterday and no problems! Great product!"
G.J, Telford, Shropshire
"I've used a RIDO saddle for the past 9 months and can honestly say that, once you get over the weird shape of it, that it's the best saddle I have used.
I don't have to move around to get comfortable any more. I just get on and ride without any thought of getting sore or numb.
If looks are important then you probably wouldn't want to put it on your sleak racing stallion, but for doing a 35 mile round trip to work then it's great for my winter/training bike.
Comfort over style..... after all, no-one sees it when your sitting on it !

"Another Rido saddle in black please!
Yours in sport,"
P.L, Norwich, Norfolk
"Really good saddle, promptly delivered. Thanks. Must have another one!"
D.C, Port William, Scotland
"I've just written to Cycling Plus magazine about your saddle. It's terrific and I've ordered another."
Prof. P.K, Osbaldwick, York
"Yes, the saddle is excellent! So much so that I do not have any pain from my Sciatica when using it on my road bike. I will be ordering another one for my hybrid bike. It really makes a huge difference."
S.F, Halewood, Liverpool
"I am very pleased with the Rido saddle, it does everything claimed for it. I have now used it on three 45 mile rides and can report that I have experienced not a trace of numbness when normally I would be shifting about uncomfortably after 15 miles."
R.L, Cranbrook, Kent
"I have now been using my MTB fitted with Rido saddle for over two months and am covering anything up to 25 miles of relatively straightforward terrain, on and off road. I've still not entirely got used to the odd sitting position but I have certainly had no problems with regard to the operative work on my prostate area. I did try reverting to my original saddle but it was not at all comfortable so I went straight back to the Rido."
P.K, Darlington, North Yorkshire
"Saddle has arrived. Thanks for the efficient service. Have tried it out on a ride today and it seems just the job."
I.W, High Trek Snowdonia, Gwynedd, North Wales
"I bought the Rido saddle following reports in the CTC magazine. I've been searching for a saddle for my road bike that is comfortable on long rides.
The saddle arrived on a day that I was planning a 65 mile ride, so I took a gamble and tried it out. Apart from some minor adjustments I found it very good and after 3.5 hours riding it was much better than my previous saddle. So it gets the thumbs up from me!!"
I.G, Nantwich, Cheshire
"On my first 35 mile road ride, initial strangeness soon gave way to comfort and then I forgot about the saddle completely, which is probably the greatest accolade I, a 16 stone Clydesdale, can give it. I may have found my holy grail of saddles at long last, after having tried all the generic alternatives over may years of road and off-road cycling!"
D.S, Heighington, Lincolnshire
"The rido (http://www.rido-cyclesaddles.com/content.php). I really like it. I like it better than the Brooks that I used for several years and much better than the Avocet Air that it replaced. The Rido is lighter than the Brooks but heavier than the Avocet (titanium rails), however, I can use my legs more efficiently to spin on the Rido and it is way more comfortable.”

"Superb! (Rido) is used for 350miles touring and audaxing. I would have said the exact opposite earlier but I now find less saddle soreness from not being able to slide about on the saddle. Earlier I would have said that one had to be able to move easily on the surface of the saddle to help the problem!"
R.L, Bedford, Bedfordshire
"My dad has bought two RIDO saddles and loves them to bits."
A.M, Wotton-u-Edge, Gloucestershire
"Seems to allow me to cycle for longer without causing pain in my testicles.
Would now like to order another one to try on the tantem please."
R.L, Weymouth, Dorset
"I recently purchased a RIDO saddle from you due to a prostate problem from cycling and it seems to have helped the problem immensely. Fantastic!"
I.M, bought their saddle via QVC The Home Shopping TV Channel
"Just back from a touring holiday in Scotland - Glasgow to John O' Groats - about 435 miles in total. First time I'd done such a long trip and first time back cycling in quite a while (I'm 51).
I was very impressed with the Rido saddle and plan to put it on my wife's bike for her to try out as she suffered more with saddle soreness than I did. Will be back for another if she likes it!"
G.H, Wilmslow, Cheshire
"I have a standard black Rido on my old Mercier (60's/70's vintage road bike) and a Glow-in-the-dark Rido on my hybrid.
I have been cycling for fitness (and charity... London-to-Cambridge) for the last four months and have covered about 2500 miles. The previous saddle on the racer was an old pencil thin, numb-inducing instrument of pain which almost put me off cycling before I'd started. The hybrid had a huge gel padded saddle, which was strangely uncomfortable over distance and looked like a sofa rather than a saddle!
I am generally very pleased with both Rido saddles. I have completed regular 25 mile weekday rides and 50+ mile weekend rides with no discomfort, or numbness at all. I am a fan!"
J.D, Impington, Cambridge
"I use my Rido, which I saw in the CTC mag, for fitness/ touring cycling and I am very pleased with it. I have been asked about it several times and have given it my reccomendation. In fact I will be ordering another soon for my winter/training bike!"
N.J, Abergele, Conwy, Wales
"This is now the second Rido saddle that I have purchased, having been very pleased with the first one, a black & yellow model. The second one I purchased was the Glow-in-the-dark model which, after a three day cycle tour on the Isle of Skye, I found more comfortable than the black & yellow model! I think this Glow model should be marketed to the long distance cycle tourist as it has a little bit more give in it. Thanks for making my cycling more comfortable."
J.M, Bradford, West Yorkshire
