[ddrios34]

All right guys you guys can laugh at me all you want but everytime i do the stationary bike for a certain amount of time(about 20 minutes) my whole package goes numb. LOL it scares the **** out of me have any of you guys experienced it??? And i'm not sitting on it in away i just have no idea why this happens as soon as it does i jump off that thing. If ya'll have experienced this or know if this will cause me problems downstairs let me know????? thanks

try a different bike seat? I don't know man, I've been riding a stationary bike 5x a week 30+ minutes a shot for nearing 5 months now, and I have never experienced that. Ever.

thats a common problem with bike seats, it could cause impotence and other things, most aftermarket and high end bikes come with a cutout right behind where your sac is, i guess there is some kind of nerve or something there, if you go to a bike shop or do some searches on the net about biking you'll find out. good luck man.

I guess i'm fortunate I haven't experienced that, I've been biking for years.
