 Airhawk
Is any body using the AIRWAK seat cushion for long rides?
How is it working for you?

I use one until I can get a custom seat built. The problem is they are easy on / easy off so you don't want to leave them on the bike. Plus they are a pain to dry out once they are wet. Other than that, they work great if they are adjusted correctly. Most people put way too much air in them.

I have a medium cruiser size from 4 or 5 yrs ago. I agree about too much air. Got to find the correct amount and then it adds mileage.
I have been wondering if the Airhawk R version would be an improvement for the Spyder. Anyone own and have experience with this model?

I tried one on two Spyders at multiple air pressures and could never get any more comfortable on distances than my simple
beadrider. However I moved the air hawk to my riding lawn mower and it does absorb the rough areas of the yard very nicely. lol

the area the Airhawk R says it is relieving is the area I have the most discomfort in.
I decided to give it a try. I ordered one and will try it out. There is a 60 day return guarantee. If it is not any better then my older version I will return it.

Nothing seems to be a miracles cure for buttitous but I use it off and on longer rides. I have been using goldbond medicated power and it helps more than anything to be honest.

I bought the AIRHAWK 2 through Amazon. Once I got the air adjusted it worked well. Then I read the promo for the AIRHAWK R and returned what I had and bought the AIRHAWK R. All is good now.
Thank you to all who responded to my inquiry about a softer ride. The comfort seat isn't comfy.
