Ergon SR PRO Carbon ?? ??

The lightweight SR Pro carbon road bike saddle

It couldn't be better, the choice of world champion Pauline Ferrand-Prévot. Flat, but still comfortably padded. The shape and relief fit exactly to the female anatomy in the typical racing bike, bent-over seating position. OrthoCell® inlays in the genital and seat area ensure the best pressure distribution - the new OrthoCell® material provides the highest resilience and is also more durable and lighter than gel. Sliding flanks reduce friction when pedaling. Lightweight version with carbon rail and carbon composite seat shell - only 170 grams (size S/M)

highlights

• The world class saddle
• By women - for women
• Very good seating comfort

Technologies used

In this chapter we explain the technologies that the manufacturer uses in this product.

The delicate nervous system

Due to the deep channel, the perineal area is relieved, blood flow and oxygen supply are not restricted - often the trigger for numbness and other impairments.

Numbness in men when cycling is often caused by high pressure in the sensitive perineal area. The external genitals are rarely the cause of complaints, since they can move away and are not compressed by bony structures.

pressure distribution

It all depends on the right distribution of pressure. With men's saddles, pressure must be shifted to the sit bones and parts of the pubic arches and the perineal area must remain as pressure-free as possible. This is exactly how the relief surface of the new Ergon men's saddles works.

pelvic tilt

The male pelvis is less flexible compared to females. This means that men sit more upright on the saddle and put more strain on their sit bones. As a result, the transition area between the rear and the nose of the saddle can be kept narrow (Y-shape). This gives you more freedom to pedal.

pubic angle

In contrast to the female anatomy, the pubic bones are much steeper in men and the pubic symphysis is much higher.

The right size

The shape and size of the seat surface of a saddle must match the distance between the rider's sit bones.

Since the pelvic bones taper forward in a V-shape, the saddle must be able to offer the sit bones a sufficiently large contact surface for different sitting positions. The saddle widths are chosen so that the usable seat surface corresponds to the distance between the sit bones.

The more bent over a rider sits, the further forward the sit bones touch the saddle.
