In the average female, the pubic symphysis (front cartilage connecting the two halves of the pelvis) is positioned lower than in a male pelvis, and the angle of the pubic bones towards each other is wider. Furthermore, mobility is higher in women, so when in the saddle, their pelvis often rocks further forwards. This can create high pressure in the genital area. The centre relief, which is positioned far at the front, as well as the wider saddle flanks help distribute the pressure of the sitting area.Pressure Relief Inlays: Inlays in the sit and genital areas distribute sitting pressure. Relief Channel: This recess achieves maximum relief in the genital area to prevent discomfort and numbness in the genital area. Ramp: The ramp supports the buttocks when in a strongly inclined forward position, allowing for improved pressure relief in the genital area. Shape: The V-shape optimally supports the pubic bone and the pressure is transferred to the bony structures. Wide Front: A wide nose allows for a large relief zone without interfering edges. Short Nose: Saddle length is reduced to a minimum in order to improve the freedom of movement on the bike.Key Features:Shell: Nylon Composite,Rails: CroMo,Cover: Microfibre,Padding: Orthopaedic Comfort Foam with Gel Pads,Weight: 265g (S/M), 275g (M/L).Sizes:Small/Medium: 9-12cm Sit bone width,Medium/Large: 12-16cm Sit bone width.
The new Ergon SM Men saddles are specifically tailored to the features of the male anatomy and optimized for the requirements of mountain biking. With the assistance of the latest scientific studies and intensive prototyping Ergon‘s interdisciplinary development team – consisting of sports scientists, industrial designers, engineers and test riders – have come up with a new generation of pressure-relief men’s saddles. The SM Men saddles effectively avoid discomfort and numbness for most applications in mountain biking – for most types of mountain bike riders.Relief Inlays: Increased comfort due to OrthoCell®-Inlays in the seating area, which help distribute pressure better.Large-Area Pressure Distribution: Perfect pressure distribution in the area of the sit and pubic bones by means of a flat, even contact area and high-end padding foams.Flat Rear: The narrow, slightly inclining rear with a flat contour and a minimal ramp-up give great freedom of movement on the downhills.Flat contour: Due to the more upright pelvic orientation the saddle surface is flat with great freedom of movement.Effective Relief: The extremely deep and rearward increasing relief channel is complemented by a proper cut-out in the deepest spot. This construction combines all the benefits of a standard cut-out saddle without its drawbacks (often a very stiff shell) producing a particularly high degree of pressure relief of the sensitive perineal area. Exceedingly high pressures often are the cause for discomfort and numbness in the genital area.Shape: Through its Y-Shape the freedom of movement and legroom are maximized, while at the same time all bone structures are ideally supported.Integrated Mount: Convenient removable mount for accessories like Topeak® saddlebags.Key Features:Shell: Nylon Composite,Rails: TiNox,Cover: Microfibre,Padding: Orthopaedic Comfort Foam with OrthoCell Pads,Weight: 270g (S/M), 280g (M/L),.Size:Small/Medium: 9-12cm Sit bone width,Medium/Large: 12-16cm Sit bone width.
The Ergon design team has analyzed the requirements of E-Mountain bikers in detail. Longer periods of sitting, steeper uphills and greater levels of impact characterise the E-MTB experience. After intense development, the optimal saddle shape was found. The rear ramp better supports the rider in steep uphill riding situations when seated. The V-shape offers freedom of movement across the wide flanks up to the padded nose – important for particularly steep climbs.Supporting Ramp: Strongly raised ramping for maximum support from behind – helps stabilizing your position on the bike and saves energy when riding uphill.Soft Comfort Padding: Maximum comfort when seated due to thicker padding – even on long rides.Pronounced Relief Channel/Cut-Out: The Relief channel helps to avoid numbness and provides increased protection for soft-tissue areas. Specially adapted for men and women.Pressure Relief Inlays: More comfort thanks to the OrthoCell®-Inlays in the seating area, which helps distribute pressure better.Wide Front: In particularly steep trail sections, the position often is shifted towards the front. That’s why the E-Mountain’s saddle nose is deliberately designed wide and comfortable.Key Features:Shell: Nylon Composite,Rails: CroMo,Cover: Microfibre,Padding: Orthopaedic Comfort Foam with OrthoCell Inlays,Weight: 300g (S/M), 315g (M/L),.Size:Small/Medium: 9-12cm Sit bone width,Medium/Large: 12-16cm Sit bone width.
MTB saddles for women – completely rethought. The anatomical characteristics of the female pelvis were analysed in the course of long-term studies, and the results led to a new saddle design. Ergon developed the SM saddles with the women of the Ergon Factory Rider Team who’s testing on the trail provided valuable feedback to help optimise the design. SM Women saddles offer optimum pressure relief in the genital area and high freedom of movement even in technically difficult terrain.Relief Channel: This recess achieves maximum relief in the genital area, which is crucial for preventing discomfort and numbness in the genital area. Large-Area Pressure Distribution: Provides optimal pressure distribution for sit and pelvic bones, the contoured surface area helps prevent saddle discomfort. Flat Rear: Narrow, sloping rear with flat contour, allows for fast changes from seated to downhill position. Shape: The V-shape optimally supports the pubic bone and the pressure is transferred to the bony structures. Short Saddle Nose: Saddle length is reduced to a minimum in order to improve the freedom of movement on the bike.Key Features:Shell: Nylon Composite,Rails: CroMo,Cover: Microfibre,Padding: Orthopaedic Comfort Foam with Gel Pads,Weight: 275g (S/M), 295g (M/L),.Size:Small/Medium: 9-12cm Sit bone width,Medium/Large: 12-16cm Sit bone width.

The popular GP1, but with the feel and comfort of natural cork.182g per pair.Why Biokork?The unique qualities of cork means that it is antibacterial and hypoallergenic. Cork's natural damping qualities also make it an ideal grip material, and its low density mean the resulting grip is a lot lighter. The BioKork grips use 40% cork, sourced from sustainable forests in Portugal which is certified for its ecologically sound production.This ecological theme is continued throughout the rest of the grip. The inner core is plastic reinforced using natural fi bre, which make up 40% of its mass. In place of mineral oil, the gel in the palm section of the grip is vegetable oil based. It is all a result of Ergon's “GreenLab” initiative..
