I use a 'Velo Web Spring', it is the most comfortable seat I have ever sat my skinny butt on
(I have been a bike rider all my life)
this is what it looks like, and where I got it

I Have A Seat Called "the Sofa" (gel With Large Center Vent 11.5 " X 12.5") It Is The Biggest I Could Find, Other Than Tricycle Seat. I Do Not Know How It Campares To The Other Seats Mentioned. They May Compare It For You. Ron

Yes, I Have Been Thinking About Using A Trike Seat. Was Looking At The Harley Seat A Member Has On His Bike. Seen It Today On A New Post. The Harley Solo Seats Are Comfy, But It Looks Expensive. He Loves It. Ron

for ultimate comfort, you can't beat a Brooks leather saddle, once it's broken in. they're pricey, but worth it. i've got one on my bike, and it's amazing. i've got the B66S.

for cheap comfort, i have a few of these on other bikes: Pyramid Cruiser Saddle With Springs Black | BikepartsUSA.

well built, under 20 bucks, and probably the most comfortable cruiser seat i've found. i rate it right below my Brooks. it's a big fat cruiser seat, where my brooks is shorter and narrower.

Firm narrow seats are cool if you like a wedgie,I'm older, and appreciate a wide spring seat...
