Tailbone Issues?

[leehop71]

I’ll be 73 in October. I bought a Lectric XP 4 about a year ago with their up graded seat!

I had no issues and the comfort was great!

The last few rides I noticed tailbone pain ESPECIALLY as I’m getting OFF the bike and for a few minutes afterwards.

Anyone with similar issues and can recommend a seat to help counter my issue?

TIA

You might be too upright on the bike and getting a longer stem or different handle bars could help also. Saddles are very much personal preference. What works for me wouldn't necessarily work for you. They do sell saddles meant to help with that issue, but I haven't used one.

I put Brooks leather saddles on all my bikes and the carved models have a cutout for the tailbone. This is the B17 carved. Leather saddles take a few hundred miles to break in, but after that they are super comfortable.
