BiSaddle ShapeShifter Detailed Setup
Step 1. Before removing your old saddle, record two measurements
1a. Saddle height from the top of the saddle to the center of the bottom bracket.
1b. Widest area of saddle to center of handlebars.
saddle height close-up view
saddle width close-up view
handlebar close-up view
Step 2. Measure Your Sit Bones
Obtaining a width measurement for your sit bones (ischial tuberosities) can be useful for establishing a rear saddle width. Most bicycle shops have tools to measure your sit bones, but you can also get a measurement at home using very simple tools and just a few minutes of your time.
Place a piece of clean cardboard on to a hard surface. While sitting pull yourself firmly down on to it. This will leave impressions of your sitbones in the cardboard.Be sure to sit upright and do not wear thick padded clothing.
Use a dark colored crayon to rub across the surface of the cardboard (using the side of the crayon with paper sleeve removed)– this will reveal your sit bone indentations. Mark the center of each indentation.
Use a ruler or tape measure to determine the distance(in millimeters) between the center of the sit bones.Write this number down because you will use it to set the rear width of your saddle.
Consider your riding style and add 0-4cm to your sit bone measurement
Step 3. Setting Up BiSaddle Width
Every BiSaddle leaves our factory with a neutral position that works well for a variety of people. If you’re new to BiSaddle and not sure what you want or need, try this setting first. If you have experience with another saddle and know of specific measurements that you’d like, feel free to adjust to those settings.
REAR ADJUSTMENT: In general, most people prefer a rear width of BiSaddle that’s equal or slightly greater (1cm – 4cm) than their sit bone measurement.To make the adjustment, loosen rear bolts on the underside of BiSaddle and use your sit bone measurement to establish the proper width. The width of the widest point of your BiSaddle should match the width you recorded when measuring your sit bones. Tighten bolts after adjustment is made. Keep surfaces symmetrical unless asymmetry is needed. Using your sit bone measurement to adjust the rear width is meant to be a starting point for achieving comfort. You may find a slightly more narrow or wide saddle adjustment is most comfortable for you.
FRONT ADJUSTMENT: The front width of your BiSaddle is largely up to personal preference. A wider front typically results in better blood flow and/or reduction of genital numbness. If it’s too wide, however, it can cause rubbing or chafing of your inner thighs. We suggest that you set the front of the seat as wide as possible without chafing.
How To adjust width: Loosen (but don’t remove) bottom bolts using the supplied Allen wrench. Adjust the seating surfaces to your desired width, and re-tighten bolts. Double check that both sides are symmetrical and tighten to 3 Nm. Fine tuning adjustments can be made on the trail. We recommend adding the supplied allen wrench to your tool bag. MAX BiSaddle bolt torque is 26 inch/lb or 3Nm.
Note: Do NOT adjust/loosen the nose bolt in the chassis - it secures the rails!
Rear Adjustment: Adjust rear width to match your sit bone measurement. Remember to add your riding position. Measure to the widest point of your BiSaddle and tighten bolts to 3Nm.
Front Adjustment: Start wide and reduce width until the saddle no longer rubs on your inner thigh.
Step 4. Installing BiSaddle on Your Bike
Fore-aft: To set the fore-aft adjustment, replicate your old seat measurement from the widest point of the saddle to the center of the stem clamp.
Height: Install BiSaddle and lightly tighten your seat post bolts, while still allowing for some movement and adjustments. Set the saddle height to match your previous seat height.
Tilt: Most cyclists prefer a seat that is level to their bike or slightly tilted downwards. When setting the tilt of your seat be sure your bike is on level ground and use a level to set the seat to your desired tilt.Small adjustments to tilt can often help you achieve ultimate comfort.
DOUBLE CHECK THAT ALL BOLTS ARE TIGHTENED PROPERLY BEFORE RIDING YOUR BIKE!
RAIL TORQUE SPECS: Carbon Rails: 6-10 Nm,6-8 Nm for 2-bolt, 9-10 Nm for single bolt
MAX BiSaddle bolt torque is 26 inch/lb or 3 Nm.
Do NOT adjust/loosen the nose bolt in the chassis - it secures the rails!
Bring the supplied Allen wrench along with any other necessary tools on your first few rides, as some small adjustments may be necessary to get the position 100% dialed in. Often times a small adjustment in height, tilt, or fore-aft can make a big difference in comfort. Also feel free to experiment with the saddle width, always making sure to carefully adjust it and properly tighten the bolts before riding again.
Step A. Optional Profile Wedges
Wedges are an optional add-on to your BiSaddle purchase. They are available here. These can be installed between the base of the saddle and the two saddle surface pads to change the shape across the saddle top. Making it either more flat, or more rounded. Note: Only use wedges if you are unable to get comfortable with a standard BiSaddle setup.
Wedge Screws: Longer screws are needed for the wedges and are included in the wedge kit.
SRT Rounding wedge: front bolts 14 mm, rear bolts 20 mm.
SRT Flattening wedge: front bolts 18 mm, rear bolts 20 mm.
EXT Rounding wedge: front bolts 14 mm, rear bolts 20 mm.
EXT Flattening wedge: front bolts 16 mm, rear bolts 20 mm.
There are no absolute rules that dictate who should use wedges. In general people with good flexibility and forward hip rotation tend to prefer a flatter saddle. People who aren’t as flexible and/or to struggle with saddle sores tend to prefer a more rounded saddle. We suggest you start with no wedges, and add them if you run into a specific problem.
Additional Instruction:
2 hole front surface nut adjustment:
Your BiSaddle may be equipped with a 2 hole front adjustment nut. You can determine if you have the 2 hole nut by removing the front bolt and looking under your BiSaddle. To adjust the front of your saddle more wide or more narrow it may be necessary to remove the front bolt and re-install it into the desired nut hole.
Optional rear bracket:
The rear bracket is optional and is only compatible with the flex frame. It will not work with the full carbon fiber frame. The rear bracket can be used to hold your bike onto a race transition bar or used to hold a water bottle or tool bag. To install the rear bracket you should place the supplied nut into the base of the frame and insert the bolt from the rear of the frame and tighten.
Removing or Changing your BiSaddle Padding/Surfaces
After riding, adjusting, and re-riding your BiSaddle, it may be desirable to try different surfaces to get fully comfortable. Alternate surfaces are available here.
All BiSaddle base frames and surfaces are interchangeable. This means you can replace your surfaces without changing the base. To remove the surfaces, all 4 adjustment bolts will need to be removed from the bottom side of the base frame. Once all the bolts are removed, you can proceed to install the new surfaces on to the frame and re-install the bolts. Please make sure the bolts are tightened before riding.
Bolt sizes for surfaces
SRT 1.0, Saint, Saint Pro 3D, Hurricane, Hurricane Pro 3D
Front adjustment bolts: 14mm
Rear Adjustment bolts: 16mm
Stealth, Bonneville, Sprint
Front adjustment bolts: 12mm
Rear adjustment bolts: 16mm
TROUBLESHOOTING:
Surfaces are moving while riding: If after long rides you find that the surface shave moved, then reposition them to your desired width and tighten bolts down beyond 3 Nm and re-ride. Tighten bolts until the surfaces stop moving.
Asymmetry: Some cyclists may need the saddle surfaces asymmetrical to get comfortable. This means one side may be adjusted differently than the other to provide comfort for those with hip alignment issues or injuries.
Sit bones rolling off the inside or outside of saddle: If your sit bones are rolling off the inside of the saddle surface, then try adjusting the rear width of your saddle a little narrower. If your sit bones are rolling off the outside of your saddle surface, then try adjusting the rear width of your saddle a little wider. Note: You may also want to try lowering your saddle height. If your saddle is too high and your legs are over extended, then your body will be forced to roll side to side to stay on your pedals.
Tailbone pain: Try adjusting the rear width to a wider position to allow room for the tailbone.
Making contact with flex frame base: If while riding you are making contact with the flex frame base, then try a wedge to raise the surfaces. If after trying the wedges you are still making contact with the frame, then contact us to discuss the option of trying a rigid carbon fiber frame.
Race transition mounting problems: BiSaddle is considered a noseless saddle, which can make it difficult to keep your bike on the transition bar when held by the nose. We recommend using a zip tie or velcro strap to hold your bike on to a race transition bar.
BiSaddle seems confusing: Don’t give up. Your ultimate custom fit saddle may be just a small adjustment away. Try learning a little more from our videos at bisaddle.com/pages/instruction or call us to see if you qualify for a free saddle surface trade.
Unable to get comfortable: If you have tried multiple widths and wedges and still cannot get comfortable, then please call us for further troubleshooting at (877) 397-2165. When adjusting your BiSaddle, Always let comfort be your guide!
WARRANTY:Your BiSaddle comes with a 1 year warranty on the surface padding and a lifetime warranty on the base frame against manufacturer defects and only applies to the original owner. Wear and tear is not considered a defect. Please contact us if you feel there is a defect with your BiSaddle. hello@bisaddle.com or (877) 397-2165

Bisaddle Difference
"Most riders think it's normal to be uncomfortable on their saddle as they give up comfort for a lighter saddle, but BiSaddle allows you to never miss days of training and stay in aero for longer.""
- Ellie Salthouse
Ironman Champion
Adjustable to Your Body
The split-saddle design can change its width, angle, and profile to fit your unique body.
Why are our saddles shorter?
Reduce Perineal Pressure
Shorter saddles minimize pressure on the perineum, preventing numbness and health issues like erectile dysfunction.
Improves Blood Flow
Noseless designs enhance blood circulation, reducing the risk of discomfort and genital problems.
Enhanced Comfort
Shorter saddles support the sit bones rather than the sensitive perineal area, making long rides more comfortable without sacrificing control or stability.
Increases Riding Duration
Riders are likely to cycle longer and with better performance, as they are not hampered by discomfort or numbness
Prevention of Erectile Dysfunction
Studies have shown that using a noseless saddle can significantly reduce the risk of erectile dysfunction by relieving the pressure that a traditional saddle places on the penis.
Proven Healthier by Research
Studies show noseless saddles lead to improved health outcomes for frequent cyclists.

Do you experience any of these painful saddle symptoms? The Fix is Bisaddle
-
😣 Pain
“Usually the pain begins after 3 miles, and boy do I hate bumps of any kind!”
Pain can be experienced when body weight is supported by the soft tissue between your sit bones.
-
😟 Numbness
“After 10-15 miles, I would develop numbness”
Bike saddles can cause men and women to put pressure on the perineum, which is the area located between the external genitals and the anus. This pressure causes arteries and nerves to compress, resulting in reduced blood flow and sensation to your genitals.
-
😰 Discomfort
“I have tried an exhausting number of bicycle seats and haven’t found a comfortable saddle”
Saddle padding shouldn’t be excessively thick or soft. This causes the padding to squish down under the sit bones – and pushes up in the middle – adding pressure and discomfort where you don’t want it.
-
😬 Saddle Sores
“I had trouble with numbness and saddle sores while in aero position”
When you ride in the drops or in aero position your pelvis tilts forward (three degrees more for women then men), which can take pressure off the sit bones and can re-distribute it on soft tissue area causing sores and numbness.
-
😱 E.D.
“I was holding back on extra and long distance rides because I was worried about “ED”
“There are only two kinds of male cyclists – those who are impotent and those who will be impotent.” – Dr. Irwin Goldstein
-
🫤 Soft Tissue Damage
“I was miserable on my saddle and developed certain “female” issues”
A recent article indicated that 30% of the professional female riders the author knew, required genital surgery from damage due to saddle pressure.

Customer Reviews
Overall rating: 4.4 / 5 from 68 reviews.
My previous saddles would cause numbness after 15 miles, and I had to stand up every 2 or 3 miles to relieve the pain. When I got my BiSaddle Saint I followed the excellent instructions on how to fit it, and have not had to adjust it since the first ride. The numbness and pain are gone! With less pain, I can pedal more freely and my average speed has increased by one MPH.
So far it is working much better than my regular saddle with numbness right in my groin. I need more time on it but definitely worth the purchase
After 18 months on the EXT Stealth, I decided to go with the Saint this season for my new bike. The Stealth is still very comfortable and will be on my gravel bike. The Saint has really impressed me, very comfortable. Slim and sleek looking. Being able to adjust each half to dial in your fit even further is absolutely amazing. Customer service is top notch and really want you to not only enjoy your purchase, but fall in love with cycling again. Invest in one of the most important parts of your bike, the thing you sit on.
So glad I heard about Bisaddle! Enjoying my long rides more than ever now!
Getting ready to launch into a 1200-mile bike ride from Florida to Maryland. I had considered the saddle for a while training this summer and had a chance to see one in person at the aborted Sprint Tri Nationals in Milwaukee. After a few longer rides on my older Selle SMP, I needed a change and went with the Saint. VERY. SMART. DECISION. Easily the most comfortable saddle I've ever ridden. I completed an 85-mile training ride, no discomfort, no saddle sores. I'm hooked. Will advise further in a few weeks after 1200 miles. So far, so good.
Keegan spent a long time looking for something that fit his road and track needs. We now have 2 Saints. 1 we got from you and another a Bike fitter. He has had no issues with saddle sores since and his 4 and 5 hour rides don't end in saddle discomfort.
Refurbished Saint (Non-Returnable - All Refurbished Sales Final)
Purchasing my bisaddle is a great investment. I an now doing longer rides without discomfort. This is a game changer for me.
Great product
Top 3 overall finish at USAT Collegiate Nationals olympic distance for my first race with it!
I never like to review anything until I've put it to the test. With maybe 300 miles I can say it hits most of what I was looking for with the exception being my artificial sphincter. Most noses on bicycle saddles will hit the release valve for the sphincter creating an embarrassing situation. While not as bad sadly, the Saint Bisaddle still can. I have to be so careful when getting off as that's when it will happens the most. I started with the saddle narrow in the front and about mid way in the back and tilted back. I changed the tilt to slightly forward. I now have it as wide as it can go and almost dead level. It seems better this was but I still must be be very aware when stopping and getting off. I alternate the saddle between my Trek Domane A3 and my Trek Alpha Series bicycle. It seems to fit me better on the Alpha series.
After buying about six (6) different saddles and all not working for me, I figured the BiSaddle was a reasonable investment. Boy, was I right. I adjusted it to the same width as the old saddle and dropped the height ~one (1) inch (as per the enclosed instructions), On trial, it was not too bad. Further adjusted the width slightly and it felt right on. Did a longer ride and found that the front of the saddle was too wide so adjusted it accordingly without disturbing the main width (again as per the instructions). I am amazed that I found the "sweet spot" so quickly. The saddle is much shorter than any of the previous saddles I tried and I think that keeps me back on the saddle where my sitting bones need to be. I am a 77-year-old cyclist and would recommend BiSaddle to anyone.
I've spent hundreds of dollars on bicycle seats and was disappointed for each. None of them addressed my saddle pain issues. Since installing the Bi-saddle Saint seat, I can ride much longer with little to no pain. I love my Bi-saddle seat.
Good
I am 70 years old and after having prostate removal surgery this came recommended to me by a friend who was in the same situation. I made some adjustments and I find it very comfortable for my long distance riding.
The logo on one side started coming off after the second ride. I prefer no logos as the product speaks for itself…great saddle! If you keep the logo look, please look into a method that prevents the logo from rubbing off.
Excellent product…. 2nd one purchased!
Currently in the process of tweeking it, but am very happy with the saddle.
Bought a Bi-Saddle seat about a year ago and have found it to be very comfortable and supportive overall. I went back to another “regular saddle” on another road bike and it reinforced my decision to purchase the bisaddle seat. I have now bought a second seat for a second bike due to the comparison of the two different seat designs.
I have ridden 50 miles on this new saddle and so far I feel so much better. My sit bones don’t hurt and no more sores.
Great saddle and has helped alleviate numbness after long rides
Seat solved more than just pudendal nerve pressure. more comfortable and better fit -- less effort to stay on the saddle properly
Love it, no more numbness!
Overall, it’s doing what I want it to by relieving pressure in sensitive areas. I’m still working to get it properly adjusted though, plastic under padding is rubbing inner thigh.
It took a bit of adjustments and trial and error, but once dialed in my saddle comfort improved immensely! Highly recommended, and the instructions were easy to follow.
Refurbished Saint (Non-Returnable - All Refurbished Sales Final)
Unfortunately the weather is not cooperating so I have only been able to ride 3 times since I installed it. Still making some minor adjustments but I am hopeful it proves to be a good investment.
Took a couple of rides to dial it in, and may need a few more little tweaks, but nice saddle, very comfortable and keeps me in the saddle longer. Highly recommend.
Concept of adjustable saddle shows the intensity of love for riding!
I'm a return cyclist after 15 year break having children. That familiar feeling of getting back into the saddle (sores) was not pleasant. I tried a host of different saddles and the reality was my geometry had changed. So I decided maybe I needed to try a different approach. The bi-saddle provided me with the option to adjust to my body and voila....I have had less pain than I have in my original cycling years. So much so, I purchased a second saddle to go on my Peloton to make my winter and summer training feel consistent. Great product!
Just rode the Tour De Tucson Metric Century. Without a ton of time in the saddle, i just went for it, and was extremely satisfied with the lack of soreness and my ability just to ride and really not think about the seat!
It’s very comfortable, but even when I have it properly adjusted, I slide around on it especially fore and aft. I want to buy 2 to 3inch diameter sticky pads that have a grip effect on the upper surface, but I can’t find any. The narrow band of sticky material that is on the inner cuff of bike pants/shorts to help keep them from riding up is the type of material that I’m looking for. Can you help me please. Thanks, Gary
Amazing on the bum no sores at all
I’m still in the tweaking phase post installation. So far so good. I could tell a major improvement immediately after installation but still needed some minor adjustments which are still ongoing. I will update again after a few more weeks or hundred miles, which ever comes first.
I can ride again!!! The Saint is a miracle seat. I'm recommending it to every rider I know.
Now, I'm able to ride long distance again with my Bisaddle saint seat. Time to enjoy the road painfree.
Well it was rough at first but got use to it It has relieved my prostate problem I had previously. Highly recommend
Refurbished Saint (Non-Returnable - All Refurbished Sales Final)
Easy to install. Takes a bit of getting used to. Ride, adjust, ride, adjust…but you gotta stick it out because once you find the right positions, it’s so worth it!
Refurbished Saint (Non-Returnable - All Refurbished Sales Final)
Love the adjustability and looks amazing, but more flexible than I would like at the nose
Definitely a major improvement over my last saddle. Still trying to fine tune it for a perfect fit.hopefully within the next couple of weeks it will be completely comfortable.
I am not in love with it, but I don't hate it either. Don't get me wrong, I think it's a really great design. And it could become 'the saddle' for me. As in, I have it on several bikes. I have about 10 rides on it. The fact that it is still on the main bike I ride outside currently is a good sign. I'm super picky about saddles. And I've ridden a lot. I worked for Specialized bicycles until I retired. Because of that ( and the fact that I was a former elite level road and track racer) I tested many different products developed by SBC. I rode one of the first prototypes of the Body Geometry saddle with the Minkow Wedge cut out of the foam on the back of the saddle. I was not a fan. Over time the various saddles SBC made did evolve and I did become more of a fan. Now I'm much older and less fit, heavier. But I ride a lot and am training to compete in masters racing. I specifically wanted to try the Bi Saddle. It was easy to set up, and as of yet I haven't needed to adjust it. Next step is to set it up on my TT bike and see how that goes.
