The Selle SMP Women's Stratos saddle is covered in real leather on the black and microfibre on the white and has excellent "all-around" features such as Selle SMP's completely free central channel, the original eagle-beak nose and the raised rear giving this model a fascinating aerodynamic style and is the ideal option between the Women's Evolution and Glider models. SMP4BIKE: SMP's set a fundamental objective: "To reduce pressure on the perineum and the consequent pressing of neuro-vascular structures in order to decrease the incidence of genitourinary problems and disorders in cyclists". To pursue this objective they set further goals: their saddles must have an innovative design and top quality. Research and development activities led to defining exclusive patents with regard to shape, curvature and the dimensions of the various parts that make up the saddle. The nose of the saddle (Beak): The characteristic "beak" shape has been designed to provide a flat base for efforts when sitting, for example when facing long uphill climbs and as help in descents, offering greater bike control using the thighs. Furthermore, the most important thing is that the "sensitive areas" are not pressed upward. The central channel: The central channel's unusual dimensions permits the "sensitive areas" of the human body not undergo any pressure. Cyclist's sitting position: Body weight is divided between the rear and the lower part of the ischial tuberosities. The position is helped by the rear profile shaped of the saddle in such a way to avoid pressure on the coccyx when riding on rough roads. The length of the bars/frame: It permits any cyclist to find the correct position on the saddle, making installation particularly simple and efficacious on practically any frame/seat post combination.
The LEKI Ultratrail FX.One Superlite Running Poles will support you in your quest for kilometers and altitude. Firstly, they come equipped with a Trail Shark grip, the first grip-strap system developed 100% for trail running. Thanks to newly designed air channels, its grip weight has been reduced by 30% compared to other familiar Shark systems. The Shark Frame Strap Mesh also fits like a glove and transfers power directly to the centre of the pole. The slim shape of the Shark mandrel additionally allows the strap to be clicked in and off, even with eyes closed, while the nose on the grip provides a second grip option and even more precise guidance. The pole can be easily folded to carry in the hands too, as their 14/12 millimeters slim diameter provides a secure grip for easy transport over flat passages. Plus, with a packing size of 35cm and a weight of 137g, the Ultratrail FX.One Superlites are an indispensable companion for your next race.
Key Features:XLC Shift Inner Cables,1.1 x 2000 mm, stainless steel,Lower maintenance, optimally sealed,Extremely low frictional resistance, precise shift mechanism.
Carbon Braided Rails Rather than a conventional solid or tubular rail, fi'zi:k's rails use an outer sleeve of braided carbon fibers forming a tube, with the void inside being filled by unidirectional carbon fibers. This construction is strong, light and stiff. Wing Flex Technology Wing Flex shell has engineered flexibility along the edges where the inner thighs contact the saddle. By allowing this area to flex, the rider can achieve a full range of leg movement in a wide range of riding positions. Wing Flex allows the saddle to adapt to the rider rather than the rider having to get used to the saddle. Integrated Clip System The Integrated Clip System (ICS) is an integrated interface in the saddle's base to allow quick attachment and removal of ICS accessories such as the Fi'zi:k saddle Pa:k and Blin:k light. It is a clean, easy, fast and secure attachment that does not require any tools. Tundra M1 is for The Snake: Flexible Spine If you are very spinally flexible (far less than 90 degrees between your straight legs and your back when bending over as far as you can, keeping your legs straight a shoulders’ width apart), you are a Snake. You achieve the performance position using your spinal flexibility alone, not rotating your pelvis at all. You will like the flat, narrow and long shape of the Tundra.
This road bike saddle is equipped with a hard-wearing microfibre cover construction, which makes it more than capable of handling all the intensity that comes with long journeys. Ergon has also kitted out this model with titanium rails, which provide a superior strength to weight ratio. Another highlight is its orthopaedic aircell foam that delivers incredible comfort and stability as you go the extra mile. This is a perfect saddle for enhanced steering input and control to the bike through the inside of your thighs, hence the contact zones being padded all-around.
This CrMo-railed racing saddle is constructed with ultimate aerodynamics and comfort in mind, sacrificing the traditional nose shape for a dual-fronted shape. This creates a pressure-relieving cut-out which extends into a shallow channel, making sure your perineal area is kept protected when taking up a position at the front and centre of the saddle. Cushioned with 40-series foam padding, it keeps a narrow 120mm width and features tapered edges for day-long enjoyment. Well-ventilated thanks to its motor-racing inspired chassis, this Elite model has been created to carry you to the next level.
Every aspect of the Zero Aero pedal design has been painstakingly tailored to boost speed by minimising wind drag. Developed specifically for Time Trials and Triathlons where every second counts, the Zero Aero Pedal System provides more speed with the same power. Aerodynamic Due to its aerodynamic advantage, the Zero Aero Pedal System was chosen by Bradley Wiggins to set the UCI World Hour Record of 54.526 km on June 7, 2015, at the Lee Valley Olympic Velodrome in London. The average speed of the historic ride was 33.88 mph. Considered the holy grail of cycling achievements, the Hour Record is an honour earned by the cyclist who covers the greatest distance in kilometers in one hour. Large, stable cycling platform The Zero Aero Pedal System provides the same solid connection as conventional single-sided pedals, but with Speedplay's unique, inverted design the cleat provides the platform once the cleat is engaged. Quality without compromise Zero Aero pedals use precision cartridge and needle bearings - three of them instead of two found in most other pedals - which allows the Zero Aero to be thinner for a lower stack height, better cornering clearance, and reduced aerodynamic drag. Like all Speedplay Pedal Systems, the locking edges of Zero Aero pedals and cleats are metal-on-metal for durability and safety, unlike their competitors who use engagement edges made of plastic. Foot adjustments No other pedal system offers the precise adjustment or convenience of independently adjustable fore-aft, side-to-side, and rotational foot positions. Unlike the inexact set-up of traditional cleats, each of the three critical foot-axis adjustments of Zero Aero Walkable™ Cleats can be set or changed without affecting the position of the other two adjustments. This feature also eliminates guesswork and misalignment when replacing cleats.
