Los trabajadores que andan en bicicleta como parte de su trabajo pueden estar en riesgo de sufrir entumecimiento genital o problemas sexuales o de salud reproductiva más graves debido a la presión que el sillín de la bicicleta tradicional ejerce en la ingle (perineo). NIOSH ha realizado estudios que han demostrado la eficacia de los sillines de bicicleta sin punta (o nariz) para reducir la presión en la ingle y mejorar la salud sexual de los agentes de policía que patrullan en bicicleta. Aunque la mayoría de las personas que usan bicicleta para trabajar son hombres, estudios recientes parecen indicar que las mujeres también podrían beneficiarse de los sillines sin punta.
