Ergon ST Gel Men M/L
Description
The ergonomic touring saddle specifically for men: Thanks to orthopedic comfort foam and large gel pads you sit comfortably even on long distances. Saddle shape and relief channel are precisely adapted to the male anatomy and take the pressure from the sensitive perineal area.
Anatomical gel pads
When cycling, most of your body weight rests on the small saddle area. To prevent discomfort in the extremely sensitive perineal and genital area, the pressure is distributed as evenly as possible over the sit bones. In the ST Gel, the large anatomical gel pads play an essential role: they provide you with additional comfort by following the natural movements of the sit bones, which alternately bear the body weight on the left and right while pedaling.
Anatomically optimized for men
Numbness while cycling is often caused in men by high pressure in the sensitive perineal area. The external genitalia, on the other hand, rarely cause discomfort because they can move out of the way and are not compressed by bony structures.
The right size
The shape and size of a saddle's seat must match the rider's sit-bone distance. Since the pelvic bones taper forward in a v-shape, the saddle must be able to provide a sufficiently large contact surface for the sit bones in different sitting positions. The saddle widths are selected so that the usable seat surface corresponds to the distance between the sit bones in each case. The more forward a rider sits, the further forward the sit bones touch the saddle.
YOUR SOFA SADDLE
Rightly comfortable
As a touring cyclist, you sit slightly inclined to upright on the saddle. We developed the shape of the ST Gel for these typical postures
The flat, even contact surface of the saddle, on which your body weight rests, also contributes significantly to the prevention of seat discomfort, numbness and other discomfort - ideally supported by the orthopedic comfort foam with gel pads. You sit comfortably like on a sofa: so you feel good at all times, even on long tours.
The feel-good formula
Thoughtful components
To give you maximum protection from seat discomfort, the Ergon developers have combined several important components in the ST Gel: the construction of the seat surface, the structure of the seat cushion, the specifically pronounced relief channel and a seat shell optimal for touring. For this we use a nylon composite material - other manufacturers use polypropylene here, which, however, provides less support.
MAXIMUM LEG FREEDOM
The secret of the narrow nose
The most beautiful bicycle tour is only really fun when nothing presses or chafes along the way. If the thighs rub against the saddle when pedaling, it is often quickly over with the fun. We have also taken this into account in the development of the ST Gel: The saddle nose is cut narrow and thus offers you the best possible legroom when cycling.
ORTHOPEDIC FOAM
Comfortable and sturdy
The ST Gel's padding is made of orthopedic comfort foam, which we have tuned to be pleasantly soft yet defined for touring riders. The pressure of body weight on the seat area is distributed much better in conjunction with the large gel pads, the support force is increased. Wearing cycling shorts is not absolutely necessary. Covered is the saddle with robust microfiber, so that even frequent riders have lasting pleasure with the ST Gel.
