In this chapter we explain the technologies that the manufacturer uses for this product.
Ergon Core - The saddle revolution with an ergonomic core
The core consists of Infinergy®, a modern E-TPU with outstanding technical properties, which is manufactured by BASF for Ergon in Germany. The Ergon Core is a composite of many individual particles.
The advantages: direct damping response, maximum resilience and durability with minimal weight. Seating comfort when cycling completely redefined: optimal pressure distribution on the seat bones, maximum pressure relief in the genital area, efficient pedaling ergonomics and medical back protection.
Ergon Women Series
Thanks to the relief opening located far forward and the wide saddle flanks (V-shape), the pressure that is generated is reliably distributed to the bony structures of the seating area.
Relief of the genital area, medical back protection, and floating movement support
The driver's upper body load is alternately shifted to the left and right seat bones by the natural pedaling movement. The side on which the pedal stands at the top, i.e. the leg is bent, is always loaded. Due to the floating bearing and the special material properties, the saddle always dodges on the side of the currently loaded seat bone - on the side of the bent leg due to the ergonomic core. This noticeably reduces the sit bone pressure on the loaded side.
In practice, the double-shell construction with an ergonomic core leads to a completely new, previously unknown driving experience. In addition, the anatomically coordinated seat cushion with a large relief channel reliably prevents numbness: Maximum driving comfort for men and women.
Seat bone relief, movement support and high-performance damper in one
The TwinShell saddle structure supports the pedaling movement in an unprecedented way. The ergonomic core supports all pelvic movements and actively relieves the strain on the seat bone while pedaling. Due to its special material properties, the core serves as an extremely sensitive, durable and 3D-movable damper element.
Tested back friendly
Back pain is the number one common disease. Driving fun is quickly clouded, especially when cycling. The back-protecting effect of the core saddle principle has now been officially confirmed in a lengthy examination process by an interdisciplinary panel of experts, consisting of doctors, orthopedists and physiotherapists.
All Ergon Core models for 2020 were the first saddles to be awarded the "Healthy Back Campaign" seal of approval (Healthy Back Forum and the Federation of German Back Schools).
