Selle Anatomica (SA), makers of the World’s Most Comfortable Bicycle Saddles, is debuting its crowd-funded, all-carbon C-Series Saddle when the bell rings at Interbike next Wednesday, September 16th. The show opens at 9am, and the saddle will be presented in Booth 9156.
Rocket Tech
Developed with input from long-time San Diego-based Carbon Cycling Product experts, aerospace structural and process development legends, and a Professor of Structural Mechanics at UCSD, the C-Series is bringing state-of-the-art aerospace technology to one of the most critical touch points on the bicycle – the saddle.
Made in the USA
“We’ve been making the top-rated Leather Saddles with a focus on comfort for nearly a decade,” states Ryan Hosmer, Vice President of Product Development. “Now we are taking what we’ve learned from those successful designs, and incorporating the latest in materials and unparalleled local knowledge that we have in the aerospace and cycling product development Industries. What we’ve ended up with is a 100% carbon saddle that will expand our comfort legacy into the performance market.”
Leaf Spring Damping
The C-Series features a 3-layer carbon-weave top that floats on a multi-ply leaf-spring, with unidirectional carbon rails that attach to the seat post of your choice. Weighing in at only 150 grams, the C-Series is changing the bicycle saddle game. It will retail for $299, and it’s made right here in San Diego.
“This is a very exciting time for us at Selle Anatomica,” says Carol Hosmer, Owner and CEO. “We can’t wait for you to see, touch and experience the next level in cycling saddle performance!”
