Xsilite Rails It is a material with a high percentage of silicon with particles of titanium and carbon. Rails are light and strong being resistant to all weather conditions. The process, through the stealth technology, ensures better strength against fatigue stress. Microfeel Cover Breathable and hard wearing cover, it is lighter than traditional materials and less deformable. Anti-skid effect with an extraordinary grip on the saddle. Biofoam Padding Biodynamic structure that follows the movements of the pelvis during pedaling, guarantees comfort, reduced weight, lasting resistance and ideal support. The "closed cells" surface assures the water repellency of the padding. New Ergonomy (Pressure Relief) Perfect balance between support zone and relief zone. The "big hole" helps maintain comfort under pressure and offers day long support and comfort: the central relief zone is long enough to work in all riding positions but a structural stability bridge prevents unwanted flex and twist.
It measures 120mm in length, 65mm in width and just 28mm in height and weighs in at a svelte 44grams.
Features include a highly durable cover, anti-slip side panels and a reinforced shell.
These Ritchey seatpost clamp saddle clamps are necessary in order to assemble saddles with carbon rails of 7x9.6mm and 8x8.5mm on the Ritchey alloy 1-bolt seatpost and on the "Stubby" seatpost.
This model's long, thin profile, flat support areas and large centre cut-out helps cyclists of any height to sit comfortably and pedal efficiently on long rides. The unbeatable flexibility of the Selle Italia SLR Superflow saddle reduces pelvic zone pressure and prevents perspiration build-up.
Like the other Performance Narrow saddles, the PN 1.0 is 110mm wide, offering superb thigh and hamstring clearance. This allows for more rider body movement around the seat, and is great for diving into fast corners. Like all ISM saddles, the PN 1.0 is nose-less and designed to remove pressure from soft tissue, ensuring maximum blood flow, no genital numbness, and a healthier, more enjoyable ride.
Every base is injected with nylon glass fibre which provides optimal weight and strength savings and is constructed with a dominate base bridge. This bridge allows for ultimate stiffness, resulting in superior power transfer with each pedal stroke. To combat the structural firmness, each Circuit incorporates a Lightweight EVA foam. The Circuit MTN delivers relief through a hidden under-cut and is then assembled with a dual panel, double stitched cover. With a durable microfibre material top and bulletproof Kevlar side panels, the Circuit MTN delivers at all levels.
All of the PL saddles are a full 270mm long, and allow for superb fore-aft rider movement. The rear measures 135mm wide – adding support for those that like to roll their hips back while climbing. Like all ISM saddles, the PL 1.0 is nose-less and designed to remove pressure from soft tissue, ensuring maximum blood flow, no genital numbness, and a healthier, more enjoyable ride.
Similar to the brand's other Performance Short saddles, this product features a slight upward slope at the rear - providing superb hip support when your body is rotated forward in the aero position, or an aggressive road riding position. This tends to be preferred by athletes that don't move around on the seat excessively while riding. It is also a top choice for triathletes and time trialists who ride in the aero bars, or for flat courses in which the athlete likes to ‘settle in’ to one position and go. Like all of this company's seats, the ISM PS 1.0 Titanium Saddle is nose-less and designed to remove pressure from soft tissue, ensuring maximum blood flow, no genital numbness and a healthier, more enjoyable ride.
This road bike saddle dampens shocks and vibrations for supreme fluid comfort, while its Ozone channel provides increased pressure relief. Coming equipped with rear reflective logos, this model provides added safety at night or in low light conditions.
The front arms of the PN 1.1 feature a contoured downward slope. This can aid in allowing the rider to roll their hips forward for high power output, or for increased comfort with a high amount of saddle-to-handlebar drop. ISM’s winning design allows for increased hip rotation, thus decreasing a rider’s aerodynamic drag and opens the diaphragm for easier breathing. Riders report an increase in wattage due to the more aggressive positioning of the ISM PN 1.1 saddle, and its loped front arms provide extra relief to the superficial perineal space. From the start gate to the finish line, you will slice through the competition. Please read the ISM installation instructions
This is thanks to the combination of CarboKeramic rails, extra padding, the composite shell and the durable cover made from their Fibra-Tek material.
