So these sounds are really specific. First of all they are to say we have a. Very special design patented. Design why we start from the assumption. That cycling must be a pleasure so we. Have very specific and exclusive. Features on all of our selves first of all there’s the complete open cutout from the back up to the nose you can. Find many saddles with just a hole in the middle but the most important part where the carrot must be is the front why because most of pressure on your perineal area and private parts is concentrated here while riding and this. Is what this is one of the things that make our service different from the others another thing is the nose. Dropping down so it’s very important to. Avoid any pressure on your private parts. And per unit area again so to get a better comfort and better performance as well as you can see maybe some of them. Some people they know our curved shape. Which features most of our models why. Because in this way when sitting on the. Saddle when riding there’s a better. Match between the shape of the ischial generosities and the surface of the. Saddle so no matter we’ll wash your. Pelvis rotation depending on your. Position on the bike but you can have a perfect match between them moving pressure from the private parts to the. Ischial generosities which is the only good place where pressure must be. But we’re gonna launch a new. Concept a new evolution in the concept of smb which is yes 30c ok as you can. See first of all differently from our. Traditional concept is not curved but. It’s flatter why because if some users. Need to get a better support thanks to. This shape so from between your ischial. Generosities and especially the back up back part of the saddle having a very solid position of the on the bike. Some others they need to be more. Especially mentally they wanna be more free to move by riding and in this way. They can have the maximum freedom of. Movement no matter what the position they assume on the bike, and we have two. Versions of these thank you very much is. The f30 so it’s the same sub in two. Different lines, so we have all the options available for customers to. Get onboard on these new models and the. Main thing is that you have on both versions you have a wide sitting surface. On the back for easier to grow this but in the same time you have a very lean. Shape in the central part of the saddle and on front as well so you don’t. Scratch with your lights against the saddle so everybody it doesn’t matter what the body configuration can use these models with satisfaction so it’s a kind. Of universal new concept which can fit. Everybody and it depends on if they prefer. A short or a long shadow.
With its lightweight but sturdy construction, a sleek shape, and a futuristic independent flex design, the SP-01 Kit Carbonio Superflow Saddle is a result of ongoing product research into more effective saddle designs by Selle Italia, one of the industry leaders in high-performance cycling saddles. By introducing an innovative rear frame that allows independent flex of the left and right sides of the saddle, the SP-01 Kit Carbonio Superflow more effectively supports the alternating motions of your hips while pedaling, improving overall comfort without compromising stability when it’s time to put power down to the pedals. And by pairing this technology with a large center cutout that relieves perineal pressure, the saddle further improves comfort by helping reduce the numbness or pain that can result from prolonged pressure to this soft tissue region over the course of a longer ride.
The SP-01 series of saddles are constructed from a variety of different materials at different price points, and the SP-01 Kit Carbonio Superflow sits near the top of the lineup right below the featherweight Tekno version. Though it weighs roughly 25g more than the top-of-the-line SP-01 Tekno, it’s rated for both on and off-road use whereas the Tekno is recommended for road use only and has a rider weight limit. By using CarboKeramic rails and a shell comprised of a carbon fiber/nylon blend, Selle Italia is still able to achieve an impressive weight, but without any durability concerns or a rider weight limit. The SP-01 Kit Carbonio Superflow comes in two sizes to fit most rider’s sit bone widths, and uses Selle Italia’s signature Fibra-Tek microfiber cover that resists tearing and abrasion for outstanding longevity.
Hi i’m rob with me. And today the cell italia slr superflow. In both the 130 and the 145 the. Superflow might be cell italia’s most. Revolutionary saddle since the creation of the flight in the early 90s it. Signifies a change but just five years. Ago the company was on the fence as to whether sit bone with mattered when it came to saddle fit and there was a lot. Of discussion internally as to whether cut outs actually made a difference for. Numbness or soft tissue pressure we now have one model available in two. Different sizes we have the 130 and the. 145 this signifies that the company has. Finally caved to the notion that not one. Size for every rider but that one model. Should be made in a variety of sizes to. Provide comfort for different riding positions and different sit bone widths it also comes with their largest cut out. They’ve ever made it starts just behind. The nose and goes almost all the way to. The rear the cut at the front is just under 19 millimeters wide and gets as. Wide as 34.7 at the rear and is a. Whopping 194 millimeters in length it’s. Almost the entire length of the saddle and it’s a first for them it’s covered. In their standard high density eva padding so while it’s firm it provides. Just enough sit bone support and give so. That as not to fatigue you and it’s wrapped in genuine leather the shell. Features their 30 percent carbon. Composite with titanium rails connected. So there’s a little bit of give which provides additional comfort and it’s extremely lightweight in the 130 we see. Most riders with an aggressive position or narrow sit bones and this is going to. Standard for the slr shape now if you. Need a wider saddle slightly more upright position or slightly wider sit bones and previously weren’t able to fit on the slr you have the 145 it’s 15. Millimeters wider and it is intended to meet the riders who other i found the smaller slr shape of the past to be too narrow and didn’t provide. Enough sit bone support for them the additional width is made up with a larger wing section here the cutout itself does not change in proportion to. The width keep in mind it does keep the. Slr hallmark characteristics it’s flat. Across the top here it’s got a gentle. Give for the wing but it’s a largely. Flat saddle at the rear and it has a get out of the way nose so it’s a little on. The narrower side in both sizes i’m. Going to tell you that while you’re hanging off the front of the saddle that cutout is not so effective i’m rob if we. Keep you cycling and this is sell italians slr superflow in the 130 and. The 145 with you have any questions. About these saddles or any of the saddles we carry drop us a line or email us info at we keep you cycling calm.
Add vintage flair to your new touring bike with the Brooks Heritage Saddles Men’s Flyer Saddle. The two springs absorb road and trail vibration the old-school way to reduce fatigue after hours in the saddle. The leather cover is comfortable and durable. Aside from its performance advantages, the Flyer adds classic vintage style to your rig to make it as fun to look at as it is to ride. Well, almost.
The Selle Italia C2 Gel Flow Saddle blurs the lines between a firm race saddle and a comfort-oriented setup. The anatomic cutout and gel padding reduce the incidence of hotspots, while the manganese rails and leather top ensure that the C2 Gel Flow is built to put in the miles. So, if you find a rock-hard racing saddle to be too minimalist, but you still want a supportive saddle, you’ve just found a match.
The comfort of the C2 saddle starts with its nylon shell. It’s designed to provide plenty of support for pedaling all-day, but it has enough flex built-in to cancel out most chatter and road vibration. The targeting padding tells a similar story — it’s supportive, but with plenty of give. It starts with an extra dose of foam as compared to Selle Italia’s race-driven saddles, and it’s topped off with a thin layer of gel. The gel used here is a far cry from the seat covers that you’ve seen. Instead of feeling like a bar stool, the C2 uses just enough padding to take the sting out of the roughest roads and bumpiest trails. However, it’s still firm enough to protect you from hot spots. Additionally, the shape of the saddle naturally directs your body weight towards the rear of the saddle where your sit bones are able to take the brunt of support. And to make this more comfortable, the C2 features a 136mm width — that’s around 5mm wider than the SLR linen of saddles.
Differentiating itself from the standard C2 Genuine Gel saddle, the Flow features a respectably sized cutout. As a result, that pressure is directed to your sit bones (ischial tuberosity), which are far more adept at supporting your body weight. Additionally, they’re able to do so without causing numbness during long rides. This principle is further supported by the wide cut out, as it removes pressure from the pudendal nerve. Essentially, this is a nerve that runs from around the third vertebrae, all the way down towards your foot. And when compressed at the perineum region, it is one of the major contributors to numbness. So, by relieving the very threat of pressure, your blood flow remains consistent, eliminating numbness.
Supporting the saddle itself are Selle Italia’s Manganese Tube rails. These rails are lightweight, but they’re also strong enough for off-road use. And on the topic of durability, the perforated leather cover not only breathes to keep you cool, but it’s hard wearing and naturally abrasion-resistant.
The Selle Italia C2 Gel Flow Saddle is available in a 136x276mm size and in the color Black.
Welcome back fellow subscribers and other you tubers in this video I’m going to do a review of bs le italia max slr. Gel flow seat now this seat i recently. Got to replace my previous bicycle seat was just a stock seat it didn’t really fit me too well and i felt really uncomfortable riding the bicycle over about i want to say like 45 minutes and about an hour mark it would get really painful so i decided to stop by my local bike shop and pick this guy up now the. Primary reason i picked it up first of all is of course this thing is bedded so it’s got some gel and just got a little bit on the back and then also some towards the middle right here but the most important part actually is the channel that you see right here it’s a pretty big channel makes it so that basically your prostate doesn’t hurt nearly as much when you’re riding but also it puts much less pressure on your cheeks so that helps quite a bit it’s. Also kind of wider seat so if you’re a. Slightly bigger guy this might be the seat for you i am smaller but i. Do need the extra width on the seat on the back to make it you know a lot better now something else is really great about this seat is that it’s got binocs rails I’m probably completely butchering that but these rails right here you can hopefully see it says faint ox right there they basically absorb a. Lot of vibration while you’re writing as you can see it’s a really slim profile seat there’s not a lot of padding to it and if your bike is a standard road bike like mine then chances are you probably don’t have much of a suspension on and going so any bump that you take on the road is probably going to be absorbed by these rails most likely now. The reason why I’m going to be actually. Selling this seat is because for me personally it didn’t quite match up to what i wanted my seat to be meaning that. It does get quite uncomfortable still after a little bit but with seats like this if you’re not used to a road-going seat then basically you have to kind of give yourself some time you have to. Basically break the seat in for a couple of weeks also kinda have to break your butt in as well so that’s something else to look to when buying a road-going seat like this now the build quality is really great even though this isn’t genuine leather it’s put together really. Well and you’ve not only been riding for about a week it doesn’t look like there’re any scuffs on the seat at all really good build quality really fairly comfortable seat actually and it’s got a great profile so if you have aerodynamics in mind this seats definitely the way to go now something else i got to mention the see this is really light it’s only 250 grams so. That’s something that you might want to keep in mind as well and last but not least if you’re looking for a seat this size this one is in all three now they. Do have a bunch of them they have the l 2 they have the l 1 the s3 s2 and the. S-1 all of which kind of in descending. Order from this one this is if you’re a smaller person might want to look to a smaller seat and again you can check for the specifics on the assembly italia site but basically this is what it is i. Give the seat probably a good 8 out of 10 for overall build quality and comfort. It’s not quite this seat for me I’ll be getting a different one and doing a review of that later on but hopefully this helps those of you guys out shopping for a nice bicycle seat for this summer thank you guys and I’ll see you in my next video.

Urban cycling (like cycling in general, to be fair) is all about blending form with function, and nobody does that better than Brooks England. Its B17 Standard Men’s Saddle is the epitome of this design philosophy, and Brooks has been making it for over 100 years, so it’s not surprising that the company has the B17 pretty much dialed. The full-grain leather cover helps keep the saddle from overheating on warm days, and is designed to conform slowly to your anatomy over long periods of riding, so you’ll end up with a nearly custom fit after a few months. The B17’s steel rails are strong and absorb road vibrations, and the saddle’s wide tail and abrupt taper help provide a solid pedaling platform while eliminating rubbing and discomfort.
Yeah I’m here with dave from smp saddles. And he’s gonna tell us about a great new triathlon saddle they’re pretty well. Known for the road saddle and once you. First just explain leave the difference between your road family saddles and the. New try family saddles sure and how that perhaps compares to the competition sure well stella smp has been making. Saddles 100% in italy since 1947 and. Since 2004 most people no sell a snp for. Their very curved patented design that. Cradles the entire pelvic structure offering 100% blood flow related. Elimination of pain numbness there’s no. Impingement of the pudendal nerve and a very distinct unique shape in the road. Mountain bike cyclotrons travel world. And a few years ago the project was. Undertaken to bring all the health comfort and performance benefits from. Their patented saddles in the road world. Of mountain bike world and offer those same benefits in the triathlon world in the time trial world and the t series or. Triathlon series of saddles was introduced with t1 through t5 saddles. Now offering the optimum size of saddle. Level of padding in the saddle for each. Individual rider and in comparison will. See that the t series saddles appear. To be much flatter in profile versus the. Curve bruce impose however the. Technology of the foam and the. Creation of the foam or the padding that’s used specific for the needs of the triathlete or the aero bar athlete. Once they’re rotated forward moving forward sliding forward in that arrow position offers the same pelvic. Stability seen elimination of numbness. Because there’s no compression of soft tissue which is the same for men and. Women it’s not a male or female specific. Saddle it’s a human specific saddle and. The scene whose benefits apply we want. To support the weight of the rider completely on the bone structure and. Illuminate any contact to the soft tissue optimally size and fit the rider. Depending on if they’re you know very small. And petite or on the other end of the. Size scale, so we can support that but dave i think we’re all familiar with. Most triathletes the is and the da mo’s saddle which has really no support on the front of it and the beef most. People have is that it’s wide in the. Nose and it rubs on some people’s v so how does this compare the tri saddle to. The highest sense though well i think the most important thing to understand. Is that there’s two standout features. That separate you know what is become a. Very popular saddle in the triathlon world to new technology and benefits the. First being the series of saddles that. Run from the t3 which is going to be. This saddle which is the smallest narrowest in the line and all the way up. To the t1 which is the other side which is the largest so each individual. Rider can find the saddle that fits them. Proportionally that’s optimum meaning we. Don’t want to put the very large athlete. On the very narrowest saddle or vice versa because they interact with the saddle differently there the proportions aren’t the same between. Those two athletes so we can optimally. Match the size of the athlete to the size of the saddle level of padding. Whether you prefer a little bit more minimalistic level padding to a greater. Degree of padding a little bit softer. Level the other most important thing is that the saddle itself is connected both at. The front and at the back so the shell of the saddle continues and the easy to. See on the road line the eagle beatin design which is very distinctive continues the shell of the saddle and. Gives you greater pelvic stability because you don’t introduce the chance of the saddle becoming out of plane. Whether that’s from rider weight from pedaling from the forces of the seat post. Causing the saddle to separate or to. Move and so by continuing this shell it. Bends out of the way so there’s no contact with the body same thing applies from the road line to the tribe line that you still get a modified eagle beat. Design so this is bending out of the way but the shell continued so you keep. Pelvic stability and pelvic integrity both at the front of the saddle the back. Of the saddle seat post clamping forces. Can’t distort the saddle pedaling forces can’t distort the saddle so you maintain optimum stability optimum comfort optimal performance well that’s awesome. I got just one question though did they only come in these colors well the very. Distinct red and yellow are our test saddles so you can come in and try them out for yourself and then, and then we know if we lost our tests out that’s right can’t get mixed up in the studio and then as far as regular saddles they. Come in black white or the fluoro yellow. Fluorescent color ok thanks a lot dave, so we’re gonna have these test saddles at our trek locations, and we do pro bike. Fitting that’s all part of getting set up correctly on the bike having the right saddle as well so come on in. Check out these new saddles, and we hope to see you soon thank you.
So these sounds are really specific. First of all they are to say we have a. Very special design patented. Design why we start from the assumption. That cycling must be a pleasure so we. Have very specific and exclusive. Features on all of our selves first of all there’s the complete open cutout from the back up to the nose you can.

The Gobi is a mountain-specific saddle for riders who fall in the middle of Fizik’s flexibility range. The shape is relatively flat with pedal-friendly WingFlex technology. The shell has a built-in, controlled flex designed for both comfort and pedal efficiency. Tailflex works the same way, with an engineered flex zone that’s anatomically designed for comfort. The majority of the support is located beneath the sit bones, and a subtle hollowed area relieves pressure on the soft tissue areas.
The Gobi M1 is built with braided carbon fiber rails and then wrapped with another layer of carbon fiber cloth for additional durability. The rails are oval—9mm tall by 7mm wide. This strengthens the rails while assuring compatibility with almost any seatpost. They are also roughly 80 grams lighter than their Kium siblings. Fizik finished the saddle with its tough Microtex cover, then added slick thigh glides that make position adjustments easy.
Here to help you achieve your newest PR comes the PN 3.0 Saddle from ISM. This sleek saddle is built with both speed and comfort in mind, letting you go faster with more comfort. The PN 3.0 uses ISM’s Performance Narrow chassis, honed from the feedback gained from its sponsored athletes to create a unique saddle design that really works. Its slightly wider 120mm tail and tapered-edge mold design is extremely comfortable and ISM claims it will literally “disappear” underneath you.
Like other saddles in the PN lineup, the PN 3.0 offers exceptional thigh and hamstring clearance. This allows for more rider body movement, as well as cutting down on chafing and excessive friction that can lead to irritation. You’ll also appreciate the auto-racing inspired air vent chassis keeping you cool and allowing water to drain as you exit transition.
All ISM saddles, the PN 3.0 included, is nose free and designed to remove pressure from soft tissue which ensures maximum blood flow, no numbness, and a healthier, more enjoyable ride.
Selle SMP saddles sport some pretty unique shapes and at first glance, the silhouette is quite striking and we don’t blame you for questioning its comfort. You can’t judge a book by its cover though, and we’ve sold a boatload of these saddles to cyclist and considering the amount of reorders to outfit their entire fleet, it speaks volumes to the comfort of the saddle. Two things to consider with SMP saddles are its padding level and its width, which SMP correlates to your pant size. The saddle we have here, the Men’s Glider Carbon Saddle has medium padding and fits cyclist with 32-37-inch waists making it a saddle that’s a great place to start for most cyclists.
Selle SMP saddles are designed and manufactured to optimize the body’s interaction with the bike, knowing that nothing kills the fun on a long ride quite like saddle discomfort. The Glider, much like the rest of the saddles in SMP’s lineup has a distinctive drop nose helping relieve pressure over soft tissue regions. This design also promotes more comfort while in an aero position, since there’s less pressure as you reach for the drops, letting your pelvis roll forward while maintaining a flatter back.
The rear section is slightly elevated giving you something to push against as you dole out more watts on the climb. At the center of its 136mm width, the saddle features a wide cut out helping eliminate pressure in the perineal zone. The additional benefit being that it places your weight evenly on the sit bones so you can rack up the miles in total comfort.
The saddle is built on unidirectional carbon fiber rails helping to drop the weight down quite a bit. The carbon reinforced nylon shell offers just enough flex to help soak up road vibrations while boosting its durability. Even the elastic foam padding is designed for the long haul and resists breaking down. Finally, the cover is finished in a soft, genuine leather, adding a touch of class and long-wearing durability.
In its over 70 years of saddle production, Selle SMP has learned two things, make them comfortable and make them durable. One thing that hasn’t particularly stood out about the brand was any lightweight offerings, but with its newest carbon railed saddle offerings, the grams have come down. The Men’s Avant Carbon Saddle is the latest version boasting carbon rails, dropping some 50-grams over the steel railed version, and it features a wide profile (SMP recommends your pant size be between 34 and 39-inches) and its highest level of elastomer foam padding. So if you enjoy long rides on your road, mountain, or tri bike and can get “behind” the above dimensions and padding level, your quest for the ideal saddle might end here.
The Avant is built with wide sit bones in mind, and with its strategic cutout and signature dropped nose, it helps to relieve pressure on soft tissues and places it on your aptly named sit bones. This is especially helpful when “on the rivet” and sitting further forward on the saddle attempting to turn the pedals over in anger. The cover features soft, genuine leather that’s long wearing and has embroidered branding offering a touch of elegance and some functional grip. The cover and padding are placed above the carbon-reinforced nylon shell, providing a sturdy foundation for years to come and blending lightweight-ness with the ability to soak up road chatter.

The Brooks England B17 Imperial Saddle brings vintage styling to any bicycle. With classic leather, metal rivets, and Brooks nameplate, this saddle harkens back to a more civilized time of tweed jackets and corduroy elbow patches. The comfort on this saddle jumps forward to current times with a cutout design to reduce pressure and numbness. Go for a ride to the coffee shop or tackle that mountain road you’ve been eyeing, knowing you’ll get there comfortably and very fashionably.
Today let’s talk about the brook saddle. And how has it been after a couple thousand miles. Picking a saddle for your bike is probably a more difficult decision than even picking the bike itself it’s where you spend the majority of your time when you’re on the bike you’re sitting in the saddle and an uncomfortable saddle makes. For an uncomfortable tour and an uncomfortable ride it doesn’t make you happy so when you’re looking at saddles. There aren’t either many people who go touring that haven’t considered a brook saddle lots of people talk about them some. People love them some people hate them that’s much the case with every saddle that’s out there so what are my thoughts after a couple thousand miles I’m a fan. Of the brooks i think it’s a great saddle it’s been very comfortable for me. Did take about 500 miles before these. Sit bone locations kind of came into play hopefully you can see those right in here and here i did buy the proof I’d. That you get from brooks so listen let’s. Talk about that just real quick here’s the proof I’d write stuff right here. This stuff — brooks sells there’s what. It looks like kind of looks like vaseline i don’t know what’s in it. Let me put the lid back on it here I’m. Not sure what’s in it but it’s what brooks recommend on their saddles and. If you’re gonna spend the kind of money. A brooks saddle costs why wouldn’t you buy the product they recommend putting on it so i put that on there everybody’s. Got their own theory about how often for the first couple of weeks i would put it on there about once a week both top and bottom underside now i only do it about. I don’t know probably once every three. Or four months the other question that i. Get a lot of times is what do you do about in the weather well if I’m biking in its weather i don’t really worry much. About it if I’m honest there are a lot of folks who do cover that you know have the cover that goes over their saddle if it’s raining but i. Don’t spend a lot of time out in the rain and riding if you do perhaps. And you’re on a tour and you’re concerned by the cover i have heard of guys who take a shower cap and put over. Their seat while they’re driving like if it’s on the back of your car or in the back of your truck personally i just marked my seat posts with a white paint. Pen and then take this just take the. While seat off and throw it in the trunk it’s not a big deal the way i don’t have to worry about it so overall am i happy yeah I’m happy i. Don’t have any major pain other than the. Normal pain you’re gonna have because you don’t often ride enough and no seats. Gonna stop that issue it’s its still. Stiff but it has just enough give to. Take a little bit of the bounce out i did make some minor adjustments i am just a little bit above level and i. Found that to be more comfortable for me i also am a fan of the imperial with the. Slit here in the middle i think it’s a. Little less painful in my experience i haven’t had to make any adjustments here or anything and some people say well. Don’t the rivets hurt no can’t even tell. They’re there it’s been a great saddle i think you should give it a shot if you haven’t i think you would find that you. Might enjoy a brooks saddle and that you. Now it’s just becomes comfortable over time and this is a saddle that if you take care of it truly can last you a lifetime so there’s a link in the. Description for the brooks saddle that i bought appreciate all the subscribers. And the views and the folks who watch the videos i hope you’ll consider giving. It a thumbs up subscribe if you haven’t. Folks talk to you again soon. Oh. You.
The Ergon SM3 Saddle is designed with XC racing in mind, but still provides the comfort and support needed for big rides in the backcountry or all-day endurance events. The longer padded nose allows you to shift your weight forward for more comfort and control on steep climbs, while the generous relief cup removes pressure from sensitive areas when you’re spending long hours in the saddle. The padding itself is designed specifically for mountain biking, absorbing small impacts and trail chatter while providing a firm platform to put power to the pedals.
Ergon designed the SM3 saddle from the ground up. The ultra-thin shell used an extensive finite element method analysis to map loads and areas of stress. This gives the saddle its distinctive shape, but more importantly, it allowed Ergon to tune the shell construction for optimized deflection. The shell is covered with progressive layers of padding that are individually tailored to the different saddle widths. Every size option gets its own layer for rider-specific compression. Adding to the SM3’s trail taming is a nose mounted micro damper. This damper, located in between the shell and TiNox rails, filters out smaller vibrations. The rails are hollow to reduce weight and allow 30mm of adjustment. The SM3 also has an easy-to-clean synthetic leather cover—just wipe it off with a damp rag.
Despite Ergon being a German company and doing the design work in-house, they relied on the Italian saddle expertise of Selle Italia to manufacture this particular saddle. To size yourself for an Ergon SM3 Pro Saddle, you’ll need to measure the distance between your sit bones. Widths between 9-11cm should ride a Small, 11-13cm a Medium, and 13-15cm should opt for a Large.
The Ergon SR3 Saddle is designed specifically for road cycling, and features three different widths that allow you to achieve a personalized fit. It uses the same shape and design elements as it’s higher-end siblings, the SR3 Pro and the SR3 Pro Carbon, but uses TiNox rails and a fiberglass shell to help keep the cost down for riders that aren’t as concerned with saving a few grams of weight.
The SR3’s distinctive shape is a result of extensive finite element method analysis that maps loads and areas of stress. This allowed Ergon to tune the shell construction for optimized deflection, and give the saddle its comfort-tuned shape. Covering the shell are progressive damping layers that are individual to the different saddle widths. Every size option gets its own layering for rider-specific compression. Adding to the SR3’s chatter-smoothing ability, is a nose mounted micro damper. This damper, located in between the shell and TiNox rails, filters out smaller vibrations, and it works in conjunction with the isolated rear mounting to allow the shell to float independent of the rails. The result is one of the most forgiving saddles on the market. Additionally, the rails provide 30mm of adjustment for proper fitting.
Despite Ergon being a German company and doing the design work in-house, they relied on the Italian saddle expertise of Selle Italia to manufacture this particular saddle. As for sizing, you’ll need to measure the distance between your sit bones. The Small width fits sit bones 9 to 11cm apart, the Medium 11 to 13, and Large 13 to 15. This allows you to ensure proper support for not only long term comfort, but efficient and unrestricted pedaling.
