What is the most comfortable women's seat for the rad city?  My wife has a rad city step through. She sits in an upright position. She is let's say "hefty".  She enjoys riding and it is good for her health. Thanks for the help.

I don't have one myself but yes there are a bunch of options for Cloud 9 seats. Note you may have to adjust the rails slightly depending on the one you get:

I just want to report back that according to my wife the Cloud 9 seat is a game changer. It has kind of put off our decision to buy a suspension seatpost. I unknowingly had a gel style Cloud 9 seat just sitting in my garage and I didn't have to adjust the rails at all for it to fit. If you're at all uncomfortable on the seat it's worth a shot!

Two questions:
I bought a Radrunner for my wife and the seat is actually bolted to the seat post so we cannot switch out the seat itself.  I'll need to buy a seat post and new seat.

Secondly, there are many Cloud 9 seats on Amazon.   For those of you who purchased one that works, did you get the:
- Cloud 9 Bicycle suspension cruiser saddle / cruiser gel sofa?
- Cloud 9 Comfort ladies saddle?
- Cloud 9 Cruiser select saddle?

Thanks for the help!

Cloud 9 makes comfy seats at fair prices. Plus their pretty durable. I got one of those Sella Royal Gypsy seats and really liked it, but then I bought a Seatlock. I love the convenience and compact nature of the Seatylock but it sure lacks the overall comfort of the Sella Royal.

I'm about to pull the trigger on the Cloud 9 Cruiser Select Airflow because of this post. Only wish I could find it with faster shipping than 2 weeks!

That's not a saddle, that's a sofa! Sure looks comfy  8)

I'm looking at the Cloud 9 as well but which one? I'm think the  suspension cruiser saddle because my senior behind has "matured" over the years! Any clarification on the model is appreciated!

I ordered the Cloud 9 Cruiser Select Airflow, and have put about 50 miles on it. It's more squishy than I expected, but I got used to it. MUCH more comfortable than the stock seat, and I find myself lifting off the saddle less often. The airflow vent works well. TOO well when it's chilly, lol. I don't like the big bright bold blue logo on the back, but oh well! I like the saddle a lot.
