Product Details

Long hours on the bike? No problem with the SM Comp Men! The male specific design provides maximum comfort, freedom of movement and optimal power producing position for touring, trail riding and all mountain riding. Notable features include an optimized relief channel, sporty orthopedic foam padding and OrthoCell® inlays.

Men’s Health
The Ergon development team carried out intensive research on the topic of men’s health. They found that the main cause of complaints when cycling is the saddle. Often times, men experience too much pressure on their perineal area leading to pain, discomfort, numbness and potentially more severe health problems. The SM Comp Men relieves this pressure with a very specific relief channel as well as better surface area distribution under the bony structures. Through MRT, CT analysis, many prototypes and test riders, we have ergonomically adjusted the saddle to the specific anatomy and needs of men.

Male and Female pelvic differences
In contrast to the female anatomy, the male sit bones are more narrow and where the two sides of the pelvis come together in the front is much higher. This results in more pressure being distributed on the male’s sit bones vs. a broader area of sit bones and pubic bones in women. We have taken this significant difference between male and female anatomy into consideration during saddle development.

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 pelvic bone has a unique V-shaped and the saddle must offer the sit bones a large contact surface with the ability to meet the demand of different sitting positions. The more forward and aggressive the rider sits, the further forward the sit bones contact the saddle.

• With the SM Comp Men, the new OrthoCell® material helps you to achieve your best performance without any complaints. These inlays, which are more durable and lighter than gel, ensure the best pressure distribution and provide the highest rebound force. This means they follow the movements of the pelvis with every turn of the crank, but return to their starting position very quickly.
• The padding of the SM Sport Men is made of orthopedic foam, which is especially ergonomic for mountain biking, but still extremely durable.
• The narrow, flat rear with a flat contour and minimal ramp gives you excellent freedom of movement for dynamic positioning while mountain biking.
• For an additional benefit of comfort, we have added anti-friction side flanks to the SM Comp Men. This feature reduces the friction of your thighs on the saddle while pedaling resulting in less friction and more freedom of movement.
• A Topeak QuickClick mount is integrated in all models of the SMC Men Series. This removable QuickClick mount allows for Topeak saddlebags to be easily attached in a streamline fashion.
