Ergon Men's Sm Pro Bicycle Saddle

The Ergon SM Pro Men's MTB Saddle is the choice of MTB Marathon World Champion Alban Lakata and the perfect saddle for the longest, roughest rides. Developed by designers, ergonomic scientists, and engineers passionate about cycling in Koblenz, Germany, the Men's specific ergonomic shape, lightweight orthopedic AirCell foam with OrthoCell inlays, and a flatter overall profile provide serious all-day comfort with room to move.

PRESSURE-FREE COMFORT: The Men's specific design and flatter overall profile reduces pressure peaks and hot spots by perfectly distributing the rider's weight on their sit bones. The rearward positioned comfort relief channel is specifically designed for Men to eliminate pressure, numbness, and pain in the perineal and genital areas.

ORTHO CELL TECHNOLOGY: OrthoCell inlays are ergonomically positioned in the sit bone contact area to deliver increased comfort, better pressure distribution, more durability, and lighter overall weight than gel pads. Orthopedic AirCell comfort foam padding provides enhanced support and optimal pressure distribution with lower overall weight.

SLICK DESIGN: Comfortable microfiber cover is hygienic, washable, and long-wearing. Slick side flanks help reduce friction when pedaling. The weight limit is 220lbs.

MALE ANATOMY CONSIDERATIONS: Compared to females, the male pelvis is less flexible, meaning male riders sit more upright on the saddle and put more strain on the sit bones. This allows the transition zone between the saddle's fore and aft to be narrower (Y-Shape), creating more pedaling room. The male's pubic blades stand at a much steeper angle, and the pelvic symphysis sits notably higher.

With men, numbness when biking most often occurs due to high pressure in the sensitive perineal area. The external genitals are usually not the cause for discomfort because they can yield and are generally not compressed by bone structures. The task with male-specific saddles is to keep pressure off the perineal area and transfer the loads to the sit bones and parts of the pubic arch, which the relief-surface of the new Ergon Men's saddles is designed to achieve.

Ergon is committed to ergonomics, designing rider and bike as one. Their saddles and grips are built to match the form of the body, eliminating unpleasant pressure points and related discomforts. Ergon's engineering and development capacity is 100% in-house in Koblenz, Germany, with every process highly integrated and tightly controlled. Professional riders play a major role in developing Ergon products, with competition pushing expectations to higher levels and subtle feedback from riders leading to better designs for everyday cyclists.
