I could not find a replacement seat but I did find a very good gel seat cushion that fits the seat perfectly! It's the BSTR-11-105 Medium Gel Pad and you can find it @ www.derriair.com. It is rather pricey, $45, but well worth it!

the seat can not be changed. this is because the post attachment to the seat and the way the post is fitted to the bike are not the same as the post and seat arrangement on a riding bicycle. HOWEVER, you can purchase a seat cover from a bike shop. The gel covers are most comfortable

The seat is uncomfortable. I wanted to change mine also but, the replacement seats I found won't fit the pipe assembly. You will have to change the whole thing to make it work. I just sit on a kitchen chair pad seat. Still not the best solution.

I was lucky enough to be able to use my older (broken) bike's seat; my older model's seat is padded. It worked perfectly with this Body Rider Exercise Bike with no problem. There is absolutely no way I could have used the seat that came with the bike for any length of time. I have had my Body Rider Bike for over 2 years now and just replaced the bike's friction belt; other than the belt, I haven't had any problems with the exercise bike. The cost for a new friction belt was $22.

NO!! I ordered the C9 Cloud seat by Sunlite and paid 25.00 for it and it did not match up with the Pillar...on the Body Rider bike. if I hack-sawed off the triangle bolt hole piece on top of the pillar, it MIGHT work..

no. the seat is hard but i got use to it. but it was miserable in the beginning. If you want a comfortable seat i would buy a different bike.

You can change it from left to right, but the process involves disassembly and takes 15-20 minutes. Cushions are not reversible, one side is cloth rather than fabric.

It is not easily adjustable. You cannot go back and forth between standing and sitting with ease.

The seat is not fabric nor hard. It's more like a synthetic artificial material (like a tent) I own the blue, red, pink one and it's all the same :) I hope this answers your question :)

the seat takes some getting used to. if you aren't used to typical road bike seats you may want to get a gel cover for it or get a softer seat that isn't as punishing on sensitive areas.

Yes it can be adjusted. It can be replaced if the other seat either has a same sized support or similar brackets to attatch. However, it is a very wide seat already as Jeffrey has pointed out. It's very wide and confortable for adults.

I'm getting used to the seat.It's hard,not comfortable,but other than that getting good workouts on the bike.Riding daily since November 2013.Overall I recommend it despite the seat issue.

Loosen the nut and screw where the seat post and the frame meet...you can move it up and down...and then retighten.

You have to tighten the nut very, VERY tightly, and the act of doing so has a tendency to tilt the seat forward a bit, so start with it tilted slightly back. It's not a really comfortable seat-I'm thinking about replacing it with something different.

You probably can't do it. It's quite wide. It's actually wider than most seats out there, which makes it more comfortable.

I tried to do the seat reversal myself; there was absolutely no guide, when I ordered, this past summer. I cldn't properly secure it, so my brother, who is an Engineer, had 2be the one to finish the conversion.

The cushion is stapled on to a board that screws onto the stool. You should be able to change the fabric.

I think your seat is so thick and rigid. If it is, you can get a new seat which is thinner and more flexible. Look for the plastic and cheaper ones at walmart.

NOt really The seat is hard and it becomes uncomfortable after a half an hour.

You can yes, but because the seat is fixed its very uncomfortable and puts strain on the lower back

I have not changed out the legs, but I suppose you could. I bought my chair at Amazon. It has a firmer seat than I thought it would, but it's fine in the guest room.
