And a doctor’s advice as to why not to ride bicycles:
“Men Should Never Ride Bicycles”
— Irwin Goldstein, M.D., Boston, MA
Dr. Goldstein has estimated that 100,000 men suffer erectile dysfunction from bike-riding induced trauma. At least three manufacturers of bike seats have addressed the issue of traumatic compression, and their new seat designs are shown below. All aim to keep weight off of the midline perineum, away from the urethra, the prostate gland, and the arterial blood supply.
Update: Here’s a list of manufacturers that are selling some of these ergonomic bike seats on the internet:
1. Airbunz
2. Specialized – Body Geometry Bike Saddles
3. Spongy Wonder
