Not just another bicycle seat, this is a Touring Saddle for your bike!
With the advent of E-Bikes and pedal assist, there's a whole class of bicycles that don't require us to work so hard. As a matter of fact, many of us find ourselves cranking up the PA and letting the batteries haul us to work in the morning and save the pedaling for the ride home. These bikes are also great for a casual cruise along the sea shore or a favorite park with your significant other. Throw a sixer of Corona on the rack, and you're ready to change your latitude. In short, think of it as a touring saddle for your bike.
We started with a larger seating platform and shaped it ergonomically to maximize contact area. This shaping helps to eliminate hot spots, disperse weight over a larger area and eliminates centralized pressure. Our dished seating design also provides nearly two inches of low back support and stability in the seat. Speaking of ergonomic design, the Corbin saddle supports your body, enables better posture and relieves stress on your joints enabling you to ride longer. In other words, it promotes your ability to be more active and healthy.... which makes it eligible for some FSA / HSA spending accounts!
Naturally, we sculpt this large bucket design with a narrow horn at the front to allow for pedaling. Like it or not, we all end up pedaling at some point.
We then cast this carefully designed shape using our purpose-built, infinite ratio Comfort Cell foam. Corbin's time-tested foam material is specially made to support body weight for long periods and not break down. Comfort Cell foam is a closed-cell material that feels firm when you first ride on it but maintains resilience indefinitely.
To support the engineered foam shape, we use our unique Fibertech material that provides a rigid and weatherproof base. Attachment and adjustment duties fall to the typical spring-type assembly that helps to absorb some of what the road throws at you. This assembly offers adjustment fore-aft and also angle.
On top, we let you pick from a wide selection of material, color and texture options for a look as unique as you are. Above we show a variety of designs, including our popular Bomber Jacket leather and various colors of Carbon-Fiber vinyl. All color options, including genuine leather, are included at no extra charge though we believe vinyl will hold up better on a bicycle seat due to pedaling friction.
Comfort and style together in one package made the Corbin name famous worldwide in the motorcycle industry. Delivering a quality product constructed of the finest materials available has made Corbin the number one manufacturer of motorcycle saddles for over fifty years!
What the Corbin Cruise saddle isn't?
You've probably already figured out this isn't the mountain bike racers' choice. Likewise, if you're one of those super fit folk who busts out a quick 20 miles on your road bike before breakfast, this may not be the best solution. Sure, it will make you very comfortable while you're doing it, but the width of the seat is likely going to be prohibitive (nobody likes chafing!) Like the name implies, the Cruise saddle is designed for comfortable laid-back cruising. This seat is great at the upper range of your pedal assist:

UNIQUE TECHNOLOGY:
The design and manufacture of Corbin products is so unique that
Mike Corbin himself holds more than 60 United States Patents!
From the process itself to new innovations like the Corbin
Glovebox, you can count on highly functional and unique products
that work. Corbin products are manufactured under one or more of
the following US Patents: 6,848,156 B2; 6,729,516 B2;
D 489,540S; 6,655,740 B1; 6,422,648 B1; 5,544,937;
5,608,957; 4,953,911; D545,073S & 6,971,714 B1.
FIBERTECH™ BASEPAN:
A purpose-built hybrid material that provides a firm foundation
to support the carefully designed ergonomics of the Corbin
saddle. It provides a precision fit to every arc and contour of
the machine and rides on rubber bumpers to protect your paint.
We always design our basepans as flat as possible so bumps or
odd shapes don't telegraph through the foam to your body.

COMFORT CELL® FOAM:
The heart of the Corbin saddle! Our exclusive, purpose-built
foam material, called Comfort Cell, was created to
provide a firm, resilient ride that doesn't break down. This
means it will support you for long days on the road. Over time,
Comfort Cell will break in to provide a personalized fit to your
posture and even greater comfort!

button.
ERGONOMIC SHAPING:
A major part of the design criteria of the Corbin saddle is its
ergonomic shape. This means the saddle's foam shape is designed
to emulate the curves of the human body. This provides more
square inches of body contact and helps eliminate hot spots.
This shaping also neutralizes the seating platform to help curb
sliding in the saddle, which reduces fatigue. In a nutshell:
more comfort for a longer ride!

how it works.
PATENTED MANUFACTURING TECHNOLOGY:
Always an innovator, Mike Corbin invented Integrated Molding
technology, which is now the process by which all Corbin
saddles are made. This process allows extremely tight
tolerances and creates a chemical bond between the foam and
base material.

more information.
GENUINE LEATHER:
We use leather in all panels of the seat that contact your body.
This provides a luxurious ride that breathes with your body.
Leather will also break in along with the foam shape to support
a personalized fit. Available in a wide range of textures and
styles to suit your taste.

The seat is by far, hands-down more comfortable than the stock version. With the ergonomic seat shape and Comfort Cell foam, I had zero discomfort in the saddle even after a full day of riding—seven hours—only stopping for food and fuel. -Matt H.
