SDG I-Beam Saddles and Seat Posts |
|
The traditional saddle rail design
has been with us for decades, and while it works well enough,
it does have distinct limitations when it comes to strength,
weight, and ease of adjustment. SDG, a leader in the performance
saddle market, discovered a way to replace traditional saddle
rails with a single carbon-composite beam. They originally developed
the I-Beam system to meet the needs of hard-core free
riders who were always breaking their railed saddles but they
discovered a few unexpected benefits: a dramatic reduction in
weight, 200% more fore-aft adjustment to fit a wider range of
riders, and super simple one bolt adjustment. Who would have
expected that a SDG I-Beam comfort saddle would weigh less than
a super skinny racing saddle with Ti rails? When we spot innovative
new technology, we want it for our bikes. So we collaborated
with SDG to develop a series of custom saddles and seat posts
exclusively for Dahon. The result? The BelAir FX and BioLogic
Velvet saddles and Super-Oversize SDG I-Beam Pro and Comp seat
posts. The combination is lighter than our old carbon seat post
and Ti rail saddle. See review. |
