Technology:

Titanium rails:
– Nearly as light as carbon, titanium rails are able to flex without losing structural integrity, making it a great material for saddle rails.

Cromoly rails:
– Increased strength and less weight make cromoly steel a noticeable upgrade over traditional steel rails. The perfect choice for bikepackers.

Flex-Tuned shell:
– The Flex-Tuned shell boasts an exceptional mix of comfortable flex and firm efficiency. Not as supple as the Soft-Shell and not as stiff as the Carbon Composite Shell, Flex-Tuned saddles provide the happy medium that is ideal for most enthusiasts.

HLX padding:
– Al-new HLX padding is 30% more shock absorbent than polyurethane. That should translate over a pretty plush ride. Comparable to putting a memory foam topper on your saddle, it’ll be most interesting to those who prioritize squishiness over weight savings. Cromoly saddles with medium and thick levels of padding feature the added comfort of HLX+ Gel padding, which uses strategically placed gel inserts in areas where a rider’s sit bones contact the saddle.
