Ergon W's ST Gel Saddle Chromoly Black

Specific Saddles For Men and Women
When it comes to saddle contact points and relief areas, men and women are anatomically very different. Any incorrect pressure distribution in this area often leads to feelings of numbness and discomfort. Men experience this more towards the back of the saddle and women, more towards the front of the saddle. Through extensive research and development, two distinctly different designs were born. The two distinctly different designs share the common goal of maximum comfort.

The Right Size
The shape and size of the saddle must match the sit bone width of the rider to maximize comfort and enjoyment. The pelvis is V-shaped and the saddle must offer the sit bones a large contact surface while being able to meet the demands of different sitting positions. The more forward and aggressive the rider sits, the further forward the sit bones contact the saddle. Two saddle sizes are offered to match the rider’s unique sit bone width.

Anatomical Gel Pads
When cycling, most of your body weight rests on the small saddle surface. To prevent discomfort in the sitting area, the pressure is distributed as evenly as possible over the sit bones. Gel pads are inlayed in specific ergonomic positions to help alleviate pressures under these bony structures.

Adapted to Your Posture
As a touring cyclist, you sit on the saddle in a much more upright position. The ST Gel is designed to match this posture.

The typical flat and wide saddles that are common on fitness bikes can contribute to discomfort. The ST Gel has a supportive yet not overdone design to give you specific support where you need it the most. Notable features that aid to this saddle’s comfort are the orthopedic foam and gel pads. Additionally, the sides of the saddle are particularly soft to alleviate any unnecessary pressures along the inner thighs.
