SMP Saddle 2017 Hybrid 275 X 140mm Black

100% designed and handcrafted in Italy, the SMP saddles are the result of 15 years of aerodynamic and postural studies to offer high-end saddles, comfortable, aerodynamic, and adapted to the different morphologies.
The characteristic shape of the saddle “beak” is designed to provide a flat base for efforts when sitting facing long slopes, and on the descents, offering more control of the bike thighs
The length of the bars / frame allows anyone to find a correct position in the saddle, making the particularly simple and efficient installation on any combination frame / amount of the saddle.

1 : Central channel : The result of extensive biomechanic studies on saddle positioning and on the structure of the gumain pelvis, it is distributed over the whole length of the saddle, from the rear to the tip. Whatever the position assumed by the cyclist, it avoids compression of the perineal structures, preventing on the on the one hand and risk of vein, artery and capillary occlusion. On the other hand, the occurence of nerve injury (among the most common being tingling and numbness).

2 : “Eagle beak” Tip : Designed to allow the rider to adopt even extremely low positions on the handlebars that involve an increased prone rotation of the pelvis, comfortably and without crushing of the uro-genital area. The exclusive shaoe if the nose also constitutes an ideal support base for the classic ”thrust” style of pedalling.
3 : Protects te coccyx from bruises and shocks caused by the roughness of the terrain.

4 : Frame length : The saddle is by far the part that most influences the cycling position. The SMP Saddle seat tube offers the widest adjustment range and allows any person to fing the perfect forward / backwardnsaddle positioning, like on a made to measure bike.

5 : Sitting position : Shared between the buttocks, the ischial tuberosities and the high branch of the ischium. Depending on your anatomical build you can chosse from different shape and padding combinations.
