You can also enjoy cycling, rain or shine! This saddle comes with a water resistant cover so you can trust your seat remains dry as you ride.
As for the style? Retro of course! Your vintage lovers will surely envy the look of this 60’s type design.

✨ 3 tips for the ultimate ride✨
1. Safety first!
It’s cool to be safe, kids! Save yourself the liability and set yourself up for head protection success.
A bike helmet not only protects against injury as severe as brain injury, but it can also save your life. Be sure to invest in a high quality helmet that offers maximum protection and ventilation for those longer rides. You’ll also want to be sure that the fit is just right!
2. Be prepared!
There’s nothing worse than being halfway through a ride and experiencing extreme dehydration. Keep yourself well nourished and hydrated by making sure you have enough supplies on hand. Electrolytes can go a long way, along with bananas or gels for a quick boost of sugar.
3. Get your saddle height right.
Just like the old Goldilocks story—you want that bike saddle to be “just right”! If your saddle is too low, it’s going to be harder to get that full range pedaling and leg power. Too high and you may risk injury.
You’ll want to ensure that your height is set so that there is just a slight kink to your knee when your foot hits the very bottom of the stroke.

You need… The Road Runner
You’ve got a need for speed, my friend!
When it comes to your ride, you love a good race — climbs are your bestie, and your main goal is clocking as many miles as you can on any given day.
You benefit from a slim fit with a central cutout so you can maximize airflow and keep the numbness at bay for your seat.
Our “Road Runner” saddle is the ideal option for anyone looking to pound some pavement on those longer rides. It features a “split seat”, AKA a noseless saddle to maximize perineum relief and airflow. The fabric is a leather exterior with an option to swap out with a saddle pad for a little extra cushion.

You need… The Waverider
Quick! Which way to the closest switchback?! You, my friend, can’t resist a good mountain climb or backcountry road.
On those mountain trails, you likely find yourself alternating between sitting and standing, and often will take on a crouched position.
Because of these varied positions, you’ll benefit from a long and narrow seat with minimal padding for maximum power transfer and minimal chafe while pedaling.
Bring on the wave saddle! The shape of this design makes it ideal for any mountain biking enthusiast. The design of a waved saddle allows you to bend forward more easily, so you can take on that tougher terrain with trust.
Our Waverider features a waved shape so you can find the ideal seating position for maximum performance. This saddle has gel inserts inside the fabric for better comfort and less pressure on the perineal area.

You need… The Foamride 3000
You’ve got a long list of places to be and reducing your carbon footprint is top priority!
For you, cycling is a means of transportation. Your bike is your best friend and comes with you just about anywhere you go.
For the commuter you are, you need a bike saddle that’s wide enough to support your body and narrow enough to allow free range of movement. The shape should allow you to ride in mostly an upright position and the padding is just enough to support the sit bones with minimum impact to your soft tissue.
So what’s the best option for you? The Foamride 3000 has your name on it! This saddle features a “cellfoam” technology that provides an impressive, air-sprung kind of comfort. The foam allows for maximum comfort and it contains an airtight seal that stops any saddle compressing, so you never have to feel those painful pressure points.
