The ergonomic saddle revolution for touring bikes. The floating TwinShell with ergonomic core supports the natural pelvic movements while pedaling, actively relieves the sit bones, and reliably dampens vibrations caused by the riding surface. The core consists of the latest E-TPU materials, bringing state of the art technology in responsiveness and damping. The saddle shape has been anatomically perfected specifically for men and women. Thanks to the significant relief channel, numbness and pain are effectively prevented. The new ST Core saddle is tailored in detail to the needs and requirements of touring and e-bike riders around the world.Upper Saddle Shell: The flexible upper shell connects the ergonomic core with the seat padding and allows the flexibility of the ST Core.Ergonomic Core: The core supports the natural movement of the hips and dampens the effect of constant bumps.Lower Saddle Shell: The lower stiff saddle shell holds the base and guides the absorbed vibrations into the ergonomic core.Pronounced Relief Channel: The Relief channel helps to avoid numbness and provides increased protection for soft-tissue areas.Anatomical Shape: The wide, comfortable seat area is matched to an upright or slightly inclined seating position – the typical posture of a touring rider.Movement & Relief: The ergonomic core ensures all pelvic movements are supported and pressure on the seat bones is actively relieved with every rotation of the pedal.Shell: Nylon Composite,Core: BASF Infinergy (Closed Cell Particle Foam/E-TPU),Rails: CroMo,Cover: Microfibre,Padding: Orthopaedic Comfort Foam.SizeSmall/Medium: 9-12cm Sit bone width,Medium/Large: 12-16cm Sit bone width.
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: TiNox,Cover: Microfibre,Padding: Orthopaedic AirCell Foam with OrthoCell Pads,Weight: 200g (S/M), 210g (M/L).Sizes:Small/Medium: 9-12cm Sit bone width,Medium/Large: 12-16cm Sit bone width.
Longer periods of sitting, steeper uphill’s and greater levels of impact characterise the E-MTB experience. After intense development, the optimal saddle shape was found. Thanks to the 3D ?exibility of the Saddle every complex movement of the hip will be supported by the Ergonomic Core. Key Features: Shell: Nylon Composite, Rails: CroMo , Cover: Microfibre, Padding: Orthopaedic Comfort Foam.
The new Ergon road saddle for men. Due to their specific pelvic anatomy men are sitting more upright on the saddle. This creates a higher pressure in the highly sensitive perineal area, which often leads to any of the varying forms of discomfort. This is where the relief concept of the SR Men saddle comes into play. Through the falling relief channel with cut-out, the resulting pressure is evenly distributed onto the bone structures (sit bone and parts of the pubic blades). The Y-shape helps keep the freedom of movement high even when riding in the low position typical for road biking.Relief Inlays: More comfort thanks to the OrthoCell®-Inlays in the seating area, which help distributes pressure better.Large-Area Pressure Distribution: Optimal pressure distribution in the area of the sit and pubic bones by means of a flat, even contact area and top-quality padding foams.Effective Relief: The extreme deep and rearward increasing relief channel is complemented by a proper cut-out in the deepest spot. This construction combines all benefits of a standard cut-out saddle without its drawbacks (often a very stiff shell) producing a particularly high degree of strain 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 well supported.Ramp: The ramp particularly supports the bottom in the strongly forward tilted riding position, allowing for improved pressure relief in the genital area.Flat contour: Due to the more upright pelvis orientation the saddle surface is flat with great freedom of movement.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: 260g (S/M), 270g (M/L),.Size:Small/Medium: 9-12cm Sit bone width,Medium/Large: 12-16cm Sit bone width.
Based on the ST Core Prime comes to the new ST Gel (Saddle Touring). The seats are designed for more cost-conscious cyclists. The orthopaedic comfort foam provides a high level of support and comfort for male and female touring biker alike – even on long distances.The gel pads guarantee additional comfort around the sit bones. As typical for Ergon, the relief surfaces are gender-specific, reliably avoiding discomfort, numbness and paraesthesia.Seating Surface: The especially wide seating surface is made for tilted to slightly upright seating positions – the typical posture of a touring rider.Padding Construction: Orthopedic comfort padding with gel pads provides enhanced support and optimal pressure distribution.Large-Area Pressure Distribution: Provides optimal pressure distribution for sit and pelvic bones, the contoured surface area helps prevent saddle discomfort.Pronounced Relief Channel: Relief channel radiused surface helps to provide increased protection for soft-tissue areas.Nylon-Composite Saddle Shell: Unlike Ergon, most manufacturers use polypropylene shells with lower support strength.Nose: The slim cut nose offers the best possible legroom when pedalling.Key Features:Shell: Nylon Composite,Rails: Light FeC Steel,Cover: Microfibre,Padding: Orthopaedic Comfort Foam with Gel Pads,.Size:Small/Medium: 9-12cm Sit bone width,Medium/Large: 12-16cm Sit bone width.
