DESCRIPTION
Comfort and dynamic response as an unbeatable combination: The SMC Women delivers optimum flow on the trail. The special orthopedic foam is thicker and more plush than our successful SM Series while the women’s specific relief channel prevents soft-tissue numbness and pain. You’re comfortable in every position and ready to put the pedal to the metal. Leave saddle discomfort in the dust and enjoy the trails with the SMC Women!
Completely new
The Ergon developers have taken a completely new approach to the topic of women’s mountain bike saddles. After intensive research with X-ray and CT analysis, they have created a new generation of saddles. Countless prototypes have been tested by both professionals and recreational riders. This feedback, in combination with scientific data developed a new generation of comfort for women.
Pelvic flexibility
Women tend to rock forward more on the saddle compared to men due to an increased flexibility in the pelvis and hips. This often causes considerable pressure in the genital area. The SM Women is designed in a way to support a woman’s wider and more rocked forward pelvis while alleviating sensitive soft tissue with a tapered cut out.
Lower pubic symphysis
Anatomically, the pubic symphysis (anterior cartilage connection between the two halves of the pelvis) is about a quarter lower in women than in men. In addition, the angle of the pubic bones to each other is larger. These distinguished differences are taken into account with the development of the SMC Women in order to prevent discomfort in the sensitive areas.
Specific Relief
Due to the characteristics of women’s pelvis, women have suffered discomfort for years on standard saddles. The SMC Women alleviates sensitive soft tissue pressure with the tapered relief channel preventing numbness and pain. Alleviating this pressure better distributes the rider’s body weight more towards the sit bones while alleviated unwanted pressures in a forward rocked position.
ORTHOPEDIC FOAM – Comfortable and durable
The padding of the SMC Women is made of thick orthopedic comfort foam. To match the demands of mountain biking, the foam is shaped in a way to be ergonomic with attention to materials that are particularly robust. This provides optimal riding support and pressure relief with the added benefit of durability.
CUSTOMIZED RELIEF – Pressure relief
Based on intensive research and feedback from our test riders, the saddle features a specific tapered cut out that supports and alleviates unnecessary pressures on sensitive female anatomy. This channel is precisely where women need relief.
FLAT REAR – Best mobility downhill
The saddle’s rear is a flatter design to support a more upright sitting position while mountain biking. In addition, the angle of the front of the saddle provides freedom of movement while pedaling. The SMC provides the support and relief you need through dynamic and demanding terrain.
