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. Men often experience too much pressure on their perineal area leading to pain, discomfort, numbness and potentially more severe health problems. The SM Sport Men relieves this pressure with a specific relief channel as well as better surface area distribution under the bony structures. Through MRT, CT analysis, many prototypes and test riders, the company has ergonomically adjusted the saddle to the specific anatomy and needs of men.

More freedom of movement

The male pelvis tends to be less flexible than the female pelvis. This means men sit more upright and put more of their weight distribution on their sit bones. Therefore the transition area between the rear of the saddle and the saddle nose can be kept narrow (Y-shape), giving the legs more space to pedal.

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 versus a broader area of sit bones and pubic bones in women. Ergon has taken this significant difference into consideration during saddle development.

No pressure on sensitive areas

The correct distribution of pressure is important. To protect the sensitive perineal area, the pressure must be shifted to the sit bones and parts of the pubic arch – this is exactly how the relief surface of Ergon men’s saddles works. Due to the more upright-sitting male pelvis, Ergon has kept the surface flat and even for best freedom of movement, and uses the highest quality foams for support.

The right size

The saddle shape and size must match the sit bone width of the rider to maximise comfort and enjoyment.

The pelvic bone has a unique V-shape and the saddle must offer the sit bones a large contact surface with the ability to meet the demand of different sitting positions. Various saddle widths are offered so that the usable seat surface corresponds to the rider's unique sit bone distance. The more forward and aggressive the rider sits, the further forward the sit bones contact the saddle.

DEEP RELIEF CHANNEL

Eliminating unwanted pressures

The progressive relief channel, which deepens towards the rear, leads to an opening through the saddle shell. This construction combines the advantages of a cut-out saddle without the potential disadvantages. This design gives the saddle shell more forgiveness and relieves perineal pressures. Too much pressure in this area often leads to genital discomfort and numbness.

ORTHOPAEDIC FOAM

Comfortable and durable

The SM Sport Men padding is made of orthopaedic foam, which is especially ergonomic for mountain biking, but still extremely durable.

FLAT REAR

Best mobility downhill

The narrow, flat rear with a flat contour and minimal ramp gives you excellent freedom of movement for dynamic positioning.

INTEGRATED QUICKCLICK MOUNT
