Hi folks,
I searched the archives and couldn't find a recent thread on this particular topic. If I missed it, I apologize.
I did my first 17 mile ride today on my new Trek Navigator 1.0. I had the saddle, pedals, and handlebar fitted when I bought the bike, but my tailbone and sit bones are in horrible pain. I am a plus size girl with a wide bum so the saddle is a little narrow for my tastes.
I am wondering if anyone could give me some advice on looking for a more comfortable saddle for this bike. It is categorized as a comfort bike and sits upright.
I was looking at this as a possible candidate: http://www.amazon.com/Large-Sofa-Gel-Comfort-Seat/dp/B000TD24VG/ref=pd_rhf_p_t_4
I'm quite the novice, so any tips are appreciated greatly.
Thanks!
